Discussion

Analysis reveals liquefaction risk in shallow sandy soils of Bengkulu due to past subduction earthquakes, suggesting mitigation measures are needed.

Liquefaction potential is significant, particularly at shallow depths in the sand layers.
The study used empirical and numerical analyses to ensure findings were consistent and reliable.
Spectral matching and ground motion prediction helped to assess the seismic hazard accurately.
The findings underline the necessity for seismic hazard mitigation measures in the coastal area.
