Problem Description ------------------- -Coseismic soil liquefaction is a phenomenon in which the strength and stiffness of a soil is reduced by earthquake shaking. Resilient communities and infrastructure networks, like lifelines or transportation systems, must be built to withstand and respond to hazards posed by coseismic soil liquefaction. Ideally, these predictions could be made quickly, in near-real-time after an event; at high resolution, consistent with the scale of individual assets; and at map-scale, across the regional extent affected by large earthquakes. Common liquefaction models in practice require in-situ testing which cannot be continuously performed across large areas, thus presenting the need for “geospatial” liquefaction models. Prior tests of such models (e.g., [Zhu2017]) have shown both promising potential and severe shortcomings in predicting subsurface conditions with few geospatial predictors[5]. There is a need to advance geospatial liquefaction modeling, integrating geotechnical data, liquefaction mechanics, artificial intelligence (AI), and many geospatial predictor variables to provide reliable, scalable liquefaction predictions for any earthquake event. +Coseismic soil liquefaction is a phenomenon in which the strength and stiffness of a soil is reduced by earthquake shaking.

There is a need to advance geospatial liquefaction modeling by integrating geotechnical data, liquefaction mechanics, artificial intelligence (AI), and many geospatial predictor variables to provide reliable regional liquefaction predictions for any earthquake event. When integrated with regional hazard assessment capabilities, geospatial liquefcation models will provide value throughout the life of infrastructure projects - from initial desk studies to refined project-specific hazard analyses - and will unlock insights beyond conventional practice, with opportunity to: -#.

The :cite:`Sanger2024` approach parses the problem into that which is empirical and best predicted by AI (the relationship between geospatial variables and subsurface traits) and that which is best predicted by mechanics (liquefaction response, conditioned on those traits). In this approach, the subsurface traits are characterized at point locations using available cone penetration testing (CPT) data. The liquefaction response at each CPT location is computed across a range of magnitude-scale peak ground accelerations (PGAM7.5) using state-of-practice liquefaction manifestation models (e.g., liquefaction potential index, LPI), thereby retaining the knowledge of liquefaction mechanics developed over the last 50+ years. The relationship between manifestation index and PGAM7.5 is represented as a functional form (Eqn 1) with two curve-fitting parameters: A and B (Fig 1). Therefore, the liquefaction response (i.e., A and B) at each CPT location becomes target variables of supervised learning AI models. -:math:`TF` = Transfer function +.. math:: + MI = \left\{ \begin{array}{ll} + 0, & \text{PGA}_{M7.5} < 0.1g \\ + \arctan(B \cdot (\text{PGA}_{M7.5} - \frac{A}{B})^2) \cdot 100, & \text{PGA}_{M7.5} \geq 0.1g + \end{array} \right. -:math:`AF` = Amplification function +**Eqn 1.** Manifestation index as a function of A, B, and PGAM7.5. .. figure:: ./images/manifestationcurve.png :scale: 100 % :align: center :figclass: align-center + + **Fig 1.** Example manifestation curve of LPI vs. PGAM7.5 for a single CPT. +The AI model is trained to predict liquefaction response from a suite of geospatial predictor variables identified as proxies of liquefaction (37 variables). Example predictor variables include mapped or remotely sensed metrics of surface topography and roughness; distance to and elevation above water bodies; geology, geomorphology, hydrology, and more. By applying the final trained AI model to the full predictor datasets, the A and B parameters are predicted geospatially at a defined resolution. A final, key step of the approach is that AI predictions are geostatistically updated via regression kriging in the vicinity of field measurements, such that nearby predictions are based mostly on known subsurface conditions and have lower model uncertainty, whereas distal predictions are based mostly on AI and have greater model uncertainty. In summary, this approach effectively pre-computes liquefaction response across all possible ground motion intensities and durations based on AI-predicted subsurface conditions. These predictions are stored as mapped parameters, awaiting information about a specific earthquake of interest, real or scenario, such as a PGAM7.5 raster from R2D. +Model predictions were then tested against the leading geospatial model :cite:`RB2020` in three case-history events using receiver operating characteristic and area under the curve analyses (Fig 2). The :cite:`Sanger2024` AI model (before kriging) performed significantly better than :cite:`RB2020` and was further improved by kriging (Fig 3). -.. figure:: ./images/zhu2017.png +.. figure:: ./images/sanger2024-roc.png :scale: 100 % :align: center :figclass: align-center + **Fig 2.** Receiver operator characteristic curves and area under the curve (AUC) analyses comparing :cite:`RB2020` (“R&B”), and the :cite:`Sanger2024` *before* regression kriging (“LPI”). - -.. figure:: ./images/sanger2024.png +.. figure:: ./images/zhu2017.png :scale: 100 % :align: center :figclass: align-center + **(a)** -SimCenter Tool Used -------------------- - -REGIONAL RESILIENCE DETERMINATION `R2D `_ TOOL - -Example Application -------------------- - -.. list-table:: Title - :widths: 25 25 50 - :header-rows: 1 - - * - Heading row 1, column 1 - - Heading row 1, column 2 - - Heading row 1, column 3 - * - Row 1, column 1 - - - - Row 1, column 3 - * - Row 2, column 1 - - Row 2, column 2 - - Row 2, column 3 - -Time can be controlled using either the keyboard or the time control buttons: - -* To run time **forward**: Press and hold the 'g' key or click and hold the time forward button: . - -* To reset time to **zero**: Type the '0' key or click on the time reset button: . - -* The current analysis time is **displayed** in the feedback pane at the bottom of the screen. - -* The analysis time step size can be controlled via the Time Step menu (there are combinations of material properties and time steps that intentionally lead to unstable results, so beware). - -* The display time step can be controlled via the Animation Speed menu.
