This video is a simulation of liquefaction as caused by earthquakes. Liquefaction occurs when the ground shakes and soil particles float in water and are not in direct contact with one another, making the ground behave like a liquid.
It was created in NEES@RPI by P.V. Kallou, L. Gonzales, T. Abdoun, M. Zeghal, and R. Dobry.
