This book deals with soil dynamics in earthquake engineering including almost all aspects of soil behavior from the bedrock up to the ground surface necessary for engineering design of structures, wherein generally accepted basic knowledge as well as advanced and innovative views are accommodated. Major topics discussed in this book of earthquake geotechnical engineering are (i) seismic site amplification, (ii) liquefaction, and (iii) earthquake-induced slope failure. Associated with the above three topics, basic theories and methodologies on wave propagation/attenuation, soil properties,...
