Abstract:	摘要： Three dynamic centrifuge model tests were conducted at an acceleration of 80g to simulate the seismic responses of level sand deposits: an intra-silt layer was embedded in two of these sand deposits at different depths. The effects of a low-permeability intra-silt layer on the build-up and dissipation of excess pore-water pressure, surface settlement, and the related liquefaction mechanism were investigated. An intra-silt layer modifies the seismic response of the sand deposit, reduces the extent of liquefaction, and thus decreases surface settlement. The depth of the intra-silt layer is one of the factors influencing the seismic responses of the sand deposits. The magnitude of the surface settlement is proportional to the degree of liquefaction in the sand deposit. The high positive hydraulic gradients appearing in both the intra-silt layer and in the sand deposit lying on the intra-silt layer can break a thinner or weaker top layer and result in sand boiling. Our visual animation of the ratio of the excess pore-water pressure and the lateral displacement revealed that the liquefaction front travels upward during shaking and the solidification front travels upward after shaking. •This paper presents the liquefaction of sand deposit with an intra-silt layer.•Existence of intra-silt layer modifies the seismic response of the sand deposit.•Existence of intra-silt layer reduces the extent of liquefaction.•Existence of intra-silt layer reduces the surface settlement.•The high positive hydraulic gradient exists in the intra-silt layer. 出版者： Elsevier Ltd 出版日期： 2014-10-01 出處： Soil dynamics and earthquake engineering (1984), 2014-10, Vol.65, p.72-88 資源來源： ScienceDirect (Elsevier) Journals 版權： 2014 Elsevier Ltd 識別號： ISSN: 0267-7261 識別號： EISSN: 1879-341X 識別號： DOI: 10.1016/j.soildyn.2014.06.002
