In this study, an instrumented dynamic cone penetrometer incorporated with time domain
reflectometry (IDPT) is developed to provide portable in-situ penetrometer for evaluation of …

The characterization of the relationship between volumetric soil water content (θ) and bulk
electrical conductivity (EC)(or electrical resistivity) is of high interest in fields of engineering …

Das Grundbau-Taschenbuch ist das bekannteste und umfangreichste deutschsprachige
Kompendium auf dem Gebiet der Geotechnik. Für die 7. Auflage wurde es unter einem …

Core Ideas A triaxial apparatus is developed to measure stress‐dependent SFCC. Unfrozen
water content of clay and sand increases with increasing confining stress. Stress effects on …

Mapping hydrological parameter distributions in high resolution is essential to understand
and simulate groundwater flow and contaminant transport. Of particular interest is surface …

When measuring soil water content by time domain reflectometry (TDR), several methods
are available for determining the related apparent dielectric constant (Ka) from the TDR …

A real-time and durable system for scour process monitoring with sufficient spatial precision
is in pressing need for bridge safety management. In light of this, an innovative bundled time …

Ground moisture content and strength properties are the most important factors for a proper
assessment of ground stability. This study developed a dynamic cone penetrometer …

Transient evaporation method is promising for rapid measurement of soil water retention
curve (WRC). Existing apparatuses of transient evaporation method are not ideal for …

Although it is known that impact compaction tests are not appropriate for granular soils,
these tests continue to be widely used. Excessive settlements frequently occur in granular …
