"generates a non-liquid phase which behaves in accordance with fluid dynamics" 
"It occurs both naturally and artificially" 
"In geology, soil liquefaction refers to the process by which water-saturated, unconsolidated sediments are transformed into a substance that acts like a liquid, often in an earthquake."
