Abstract

During the 1995 Hyogoken-Nambu earthquake, many caisson-type quay walls in Kobe Port moved several meters towards the seaside due to liquefaction and subsequent ground flow, To investigate the mechanism of quay wall damage, we carried out the numerical simulation using the 2-D effective stress analysis. Input earthquake motions used for the analyses are original Dip wave and the component wave in each compact support of wavelet transformation. The results suggested that the shear failure occurred in the foundation soil underneath the caisson type quay wall due to the deformation of the caisson type quay wall.
