Seismic Response and Uncertainty Quantification of Deep Soil Mixing-Improved Nevada Sand Under Unidirectional and Bidirectional Loading

Key Points

• Seismic response shows notable differences under unidirectional versus bidirectional loading, impacting design practices.
• The primary metric indicates significant variations in soil behavior depending on loading direction, enhancing understanding of deep soil mixing effectiveness.
• Analysis of deep soil mixing improved Nevada sand across diverse loading conditions reveals important insights into soil stability.
• Findings support the need for tailored seismic design approaches considering variability and uncertainty in soil properties.
