The results<br>\nreveal a lower tendency of the treated material to accumulate excess pore pressuresduring<br>\nundrained cyclic loading, proving in this way that the technique can be successfully adopted<br>\nto mitigate the effects of liquefaction of loose sandy deposits.</p>", "author": [ { "family": "Salvatore Erminio" }, { "family": "Mascolo Maria Cristina" }, { "family": "Proia Roberta" }, { "family": "Modoni Giuseppe" }, { "family": "Grassi Davide" } ], "type": "paper-conference", "id": "3463422" }
