The cone penetration test (CPT) contributes to the design and analysis of piles regarding
geometry, installation effect, and pile capacity (shaft and toe resistance). MiniCone, as an …

Cone penetrometers (CPTs) are commonly used for characterising the soil properties of
centrifuge models; CPT data is useful for interpretation and quality control. This paper …

The cone penetration test (CPT) and dynamic cone penetration test (DCPT) are the most two
efficient in-situ tests in geotechnical practice. Due to experimental test limitations, it is …

A study aimed towards assessing the variation in shaft capacity of piled foundations in
swelling clays is presented. At the clay's in-situ water content, the results of pull-out tests on …

In centrifuge modeling, it is important to evaluate the in-flight strength and stiffness
parameters of the soil model to understand soil behavior. Both the shear-wave velocity (V s) …

Este estudo aborda uma análise sistemática da interação cíclica solo-duto na direção
lateral, por meio de modelagem centrífuga. Um sistema de força vertical controlada foi …

The geotechnical characterization of soil deposits from piezocone data can be quite
challenging when it comes to intermediate soils, like silty sand. There are well established …

Cone penetrometers (CPTs) are commonly used for characterising the soil properties of
centrifuge models; CPT data is useful for interpretation and quality control. This paper …

This paper reviews the application of physical modelling to problems related to soil
properties and soil behaviours. The problems discussed included soil characterisation …
