Performance of Foundations Resting on Saturated Sands
Soil Properties Evaluation from Centrifugal Models and Field Performance
The performance of geotechnical projects is dependent upon the appropriateness of the design theory to the boundary conditions, and the characterization of the soil properties used in...
Centrifuge Model Studies of Piles Under Simulated Earthquake Lateral Loading
Consolidation of Slurried Soils
This paper describes the use of large strain consolidation theory and centrifugal modelling to study the consolidation behavior of slurries. Laboratory testing of the slurry is needed...
Centrifugal Modeling of Ice Forces on Single Piles
The ice forces and ice floe failure mechanisms associated with an ice sheet surrounding a vertical cylindrical pile were evaluated. A test system was developed to model ice forces in gravity...
Earth Pressure on Underground Rigid Pipe in a Centrifuge
A series of centrifugal model tests on underground pipes that simulate the actual construction process were carried out to investigate the earth pressure concentration onto the pipe (particularly...
Centrifuge Model Testing with Dynamic and Cyclic Loads
This paper examines the use of small-scale tests on centrifuges to study a wide range of problems in soil dynamics - including machine foundations, structures and explosion effects. The...
General Report: Centrifuge Modelling of Time Dependent
Selfweight Consolidation of Very Soft Clay by Centrifuge
This paper reports a series of selfweight consolidation tests and their analysis by Mikasa's consolidation theory. The tests covered a coastal reclamation project and the...
Validation of Consolidation Properties of Phosphatic Clay at Very High Void Ratios
The void ratio-effective stress and void ratio permeability relationships for phosphate slime mine tailings were measured by several methods. The measurements were used in nonlinear finite...
Centrifugal Modeling of Phosphatic Clay Consolidation
As a by-product of beneficiation, quantities of dilute clay slurry are produced which are stored in retention ponds. One method of accelerating consolidation is to surcharge the clay with...
