Coffee Corner: NorSand: Liquefaction analysis in PLAXIS

Liquefaction phenomena can have devastating consequences for human life and the environment. In the recent past, some tailing dams failed due to static liquefaction. The NorSand model is a constitutive soil model that is designed to capture this static liquefaction in loosely packed materials.

In this Coffee Corner, we will go into more detail using this model and you will learn more about:

  • Parameters for the NorSand model

  • Calibration and attention points for this soil model

We will show a practical example demonstrating the triggering of static liquefaction.
