The performance of nonlinear response history analysis was analyzed based on the historic case of the 2017 Pohang earthquake in Korea. The Yeong-il bay container terminal stopped operations for a period after the Pohang earthquake and intensive site and hazard investigations were conducted. Nonlinear response history analyses using various soil constitutive models, including sophisticated liquefaction models, were performed on the caisson quay wall under two-dimensional plane strain condition. The results of analysis were compared to the hazard investigation results. The analysis results exhibit reasonable agreement with the field measurement data for the earthquake-induced permanent displacement of the quay wall and quay crane rails.
