LABORATORY OF ENGINEERING SEISMOLOGY AND SOIL DYNAMICS
ELDOR MAXMADIYOROVICH YADIGAROV
Head of the Laboratory, PhD in Geological and Mineralogical Sciences, Senior Research Fellow
MAIN SCIENTIFIC DIRECTIONS OF THE LABORATORY:
● Investigation of liquefaction properties of fine-grained soils under strong seismic events;
● Study of the "soil–structure" system considering both static and dynamic properties of soils;
● Seismic microzonation of provinces, cities, and district centers;
● Determination of the design seismicity of construction sites with regard to soil conditions.
OBJECTIVES OF THE LABORATORY:
✓ To assess the dynamic behavior of soils with liquefaction potential in dispersed soil areas during strong earthquakes;
✓ To study seismic vibration characteristics on free surfaces and within "soil–structure" systems, taking into account the static and dynamic parameters of soils;
✓ To determine the design-level seismicity of construction sites based on engineering-geological and soil conditions;
✓ To conduct seismic microzonation research based on seismic surveys and instrumental investigations.

KEY SCIENTIFIC OUTCOMES IN RECENT YEARS:
- In accordance with Presidential Decree No. PF-144 (30.05.2022) and Resolution No. PQ-158 (06.05.2023), digital seismic microzonation maps have been developed for 27 cities including Andijan, Namangan, Fergana, Tashkent, Guliston, Samarkand, Bukhara, Nukus, Khiva, etc.
- Under the applied research project "Study of seismic vibration characteristics of the 'soil–structure' system and development of methods for mitigating earthquake impact", foundations were categorized into shallow, deep, and pile types, and interactions between soil and structures were analyzed.
