Abstract
Liquefaction phenomena in saturated sands are examined. Fundamental factors that influence liquefaction susceptibility are considered from the background of comprehensive experimental evidence from test results on reconstituted specimens. These include those related to the loading system characteristics which do not enable measurements of the true post-peak behaviour. In particular, several issues related to the influence of initial state variables, on which there appears to be a lack of consensus in the literature, are dealt with. It is shown that at identical initial void ratio - effective stress state, undrained (constant volume) behaviour is profoundly affected by the fabric that ensues upon sample reconstitution. Very loose moist-tamped states are unlikely to be accessible to in situ sands. The susceptibility to liquefaction, both static and cyclic, is not only dependent on the initial state variables, but is also strongly affected by the effective stress path during undrained shear. Comparative tests on undisturbed samples retrieved by in situ ground freezing and their reconstituted counterparts show that water-pluviated specimens closely mimic the behaviour of in situ sands. Very small expansive volumetric strains due to pore-pressure gradients during short-duration loading, or after its cessation, could transform a sand into a strain-softening type, which otherwise would be dilative if completely undrained.Key words: anisotropy, laboratory tests, liquefaction, sampling, sands, shear strength.

Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
