where ε v can be obtained by using the ε v -D r -FS relationship proposed by Ishihara and
Yoshimine (1992).
As part of my research, I plan to derive a “true” triggering curve in conjunction with the existing
damage indices such that the double counting of factors influencing liquefaction damage
potential is avoided. Moreover, I plan to develop an improved framework for assessing
liquefaction damage potential.
