Abstract
Centrifuge modeling provides a powerful experimental tool for liquefaction study. In recent years, considerable progress has been made in earthquake centrifuge modeling. This paper presents the results of some recent studies on three important issues related to liquefaction study using centrifuge modeling: boundary effects of model containers, the use of viscous fluids in model tests, and the accuracy of using centrifugal acceleration to simulate gravity.
