Numerical study of the influence of liquefiable layer thickness on the seismic response of geosynthetic encased stone column supported embankments

Earthquake-induced soil liquefaction is a major cause of embankment failure. To mitigate this hazard, geosynthetic encased stone column (GESC) has gained increasing attention as an effective ground improvement technique for liquefiable soils. By providing additional radial confinement through the geosynthetic encasemen...
