Sloping　sites　are　highly　vulnerable　to　strong　ground　motions,　which　can　induce　lateral　spreading　and,　in　extreme　cases,　flow　failure.　This　study　investigates　the　seismic　behavior　of　sloping　sites　subjected　to　Near-fault　pulse-like　(NF-P)　ground　motions.　A　two-dimensional　finite　element　model　of　a　sloping　site　was　developed,　utilizing　a　multiple　yield　surface　plasticity　constitutive　model,　which　was　validated　with　centrifuge　test　data.　The　validated　model　was　then　employed　to　analyze　the　pore　pressure　ratio,　acceleration　response,　peak　shear　strain,　and　lateral　displacement　of　soil　subjected　to　both　NF-P　and　Near-fault　non-pulse　(NF-NP)　ground　motions.　The　results　demonstrate　that,　at　high　intensity　levels,　NF-P　ground　motions　induce　more　severe　liquefaction　in　loose　sand　layers,　exacerbating　shear　deformations,　as　evidenced　by　a　43.18　%　increase　in　peak　shear　strain.　Liquefied　loose　sand　layers　are　less　effective　at　mitigating　the　effects　of　NF-P　ground　motions,　resulting　in　persistently　high　peak　accelerations　at　the　surface.　Furthermore,　sloping　sites　experience　substantially　greater　lateral　displacements　under　NF-P　ground　motions,　with　lateral　spreading　displacement　increasing　by　150　%.　NF-P　ground　motions　also　cause　significantly　larger　lateral　and　vertical　displacements　compared　to　NF-NP　ground　motions,　with　lateral　displacements　reaching　0.97　m,　and　the　soil　maximum　settlement　and　uplift　being　2.67　and　2.60　times　greater,　respectively.　©　2025
