Abstract
In the framework of the LIQUEFACT project a series of centrifuge tests were conducted at ISMGEO (Italy) to verify the effectiveness of three mitigation techniques against soil liquefaction. This paper is focused on the study of horizontal drains as mitigation measure against liquefaction. The centrifuge layout with horizontal drains was numerically modelled and the change of boundary conditions reproduced by the FE code Plaxis 2D. Additionally, slightly different layouts from those tested in the centrifuge were also modelled to expand the scope of the experimental work. Horizontal drains were installed in the model, to analyse their effectiveness in reducing the...
