Evaluation of the UBC3D-PLM constitutive model for prediction of earthquake induced liquefaction on embankment dams

This graduation project is concerned with the response of embankment dams subjected to earthquake loading. The scope of the project was to determine the applicability of UBC3D-PLM constitutive model implemented in PLAXIS 2D for prediction of the onset of liquefaction in embankments. The project consists of three discrete parts: a)Calibration and...
