Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Displacement finite element analysis is performed for a cone-penetration test (CPT) in cohesionless soils. By modelling finite strain in the soil and large scale sliding at the penetrometer-soil interface, a more realistic penetration prcess is simulated in which the penetrometer is assumed to be rigid and the soil is assumed to be an elastic-perfect-plastic continuum obeying the Mohr-Coulomb criterion. The cone resistance found from the calculations shows that the depth of steady-state penetration depends on the stress state and the soil properties". -- p. 1.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume contains the proceedings of the 5th International Symposium on Cone Penetration Testing (CPT’22), held in Bologna, Italy, 8-10 June 2022. More than 500 authors - academics, researchers, practitioners and manufacturers – contributed to the peer-reviewed papers included in this book, which includes three keynote lectures, four invited lectures and 169 technical papers. The contributions provide a full picture of the current knowledge and major trends in CPT research and development, with respect to innovations in instrumentation, latest advances in data interpretation, and emerging fields of CPT application. The paper topics encompass three well-established topic categories typically addressed in CPT events: - Equipment and Procedures - Data Interpretation - Applications. Emphasis is placed on the use of statistical approaches and innovative numerical strategies for CPT data interpretation, liquefaction studies, application of CPT to offshore engineering, comparative studies between CPT and other in-situ tests. Cone Penetration Testing 2022 contains a wealth of information that could be useful for researchers, practitioners and all those working in the broad and dynamic field of cone penetration testing.

Download or read book Development of an Axisymmetric Field Simulator for Cone Penetration Tests in Sand written by H-H Hsu and published by . This book was released on 1998 with total page 8 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An experimental system capable of simulating axisymmetric field conditions has been developed. This system, as an improvement over conventional calibration chambers, enables cone penetration tests (CPT) to be calibrated under minimal boundary effects. The new simulator consists of a stack of 20 rings to house the sand specimen. These rings are lined with an inflatable silicone rubber membrane on the inside. The boundary expansion and stress are measured and individually controlled, respectively, at each ring level during the CPT. The soil from physical boundary to infinity is simulated using a nonlinear cavity expansion curve derived from a lateral compression test on the specimen. Results from a series of CPTs show that at relative densities of approximately 80%, the cone tip resistance values agree within 4% as the diameter ratio of the physical specimen over cone varies from 18 to 22. This paper describes unique features of this field simulator, presents available CPT data performed in the simulator, and discusses its implications on future calibration tests.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thesis contains an overview of the results obtained from detailed study exploring the ability of two-dimensional discrete element method (2D DEM) models to reproduce cone penetration tests in saturated sand deposits. The simulations of the cone penetration and triaxial tests are carried out under application of the commercially available numerical analysis software PFC2D (Itasca, 2008). This software is based on DEM with additional basic fluid analysis option. The soil sample used in the laboratory experiments was uniform, river clean quartz sand, which was similar to Ottawa sand. The material properties that required calibration were normal stiffness, tangential stiffness and interparticle friction. These parameters were determined by trial and error from 2D DEM biaxial test simulations. Data from five laminar box shaking table tests of saturated sand was analysed with particular attention to the measured cone penetration resistance in assemblages deposited at various relative densities. Each shake table test was subjected to three series of shaking tests (at the same intensities) by using one-degree of freedom shaking table system, which allowed obtaining wide scope of different porosities. A new scaling factor was implemented in order to compare the data obtained from tests on real soil (3D) with numerical simulations by DEM (2D). Observations of the behaviour of discrete material at laminar box enabled us to make a correlation between porosity from large scale experiment and PFC2D model. To examine the effects of boundary conditions, porosity, particle diameter size, fluid grid dimensions, contacts, coordination number and others on the tip resistance value, multiple simulation tests were performed. From the results presented we can deduce that 2D DEM CPT model can be powerful tool to enrich the conventional physical calibration tests. In this thesis it is also proven that CPT laminar box based correlations facilitate to overcome limitations of 2D simulation and can be widely and successfully applied for both scientific research and engineering practice purposes.

Book excerpt: - The first book of its kind, providing over thirty real-life case studies of ground improvement projects selected by the worlds top experts in ground improvement from around the globe. - Volume 3 of the highly regarded Elsevier Geo-engineering book series coordinated by the Series Editor: Professor John A Hudson FREng. - An extremely reader friendly chapter format. - Discusses wider economical and environmental issues facing scientists in the ground improvement.Ground improvement has been both a science and art, with significant developments observed through ancient history. From the use of straw as blended infill with soils for additional strength during the ancient Roman civilizations, and the use of elephants for compaction of earth dams during the early Asian civilizations, the concepts of reinforced earth with geosynthetics, use of electrokinetics and thermal modifications of soils have come a long way. The use of large and stiff stone columns and subsequent sand drains in the past has now been replaced by quicker to install and more effective prefabricated vertical drains, which have also eliminated the need for more expensive soil improvement methods.The early selection and application of the most appropriate ground improvement techniques can improve considerably not only the design and performance of foundations and earth structures, including embankments, cut slopes, roads, railways and tailings dams, but also result in their cost-effectiveness. Ground improvement works have become increasingly challenging when more and more problematic soils and marginal land have to be utilized for infrastructure development.This edited compilation contains a collection of Chapters from invited experts in various areas of ground improvement, who have illustrated the basic concepts and the applications of different ground improvement techniques using real projects that they have been involved in. The case histories from many countries ranging from Asia, America, Australia and Europe are addressed.

Download or read book Correlations of Soil and Rock Properties in Geotechnical Engineering written by Jay Ameratunga and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-12-11 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents a one-stop reference to the empirical correlations used extensively in geotechnical engineering. Empirical correlations play a key role in geotechnical engineering designs and analysis. Laboratory and in situ testing of soils can add significant cost to a civil engineering project. By using appropriate empirical correlations, it is possible to derive many design parameters, thus limiting our reliance on these soil tests. The authors have decades of experience in geotechnical engineering, as professional engineers or researchers. The objective of this book is to present a critical evaluation of a wide range of empirical correlations reported in the literature, along with typical values of soil parameters, in the light of their experience and knowledge. This book will be a one-stop-shop for the practising professionals, geotechnical researchers and academics looking for specific correlations for estimating certain geotechnical parameters. The empirical correlations in the forms of equations and charts and typical values are collated from extensive literature review, and from the authors' database.
