Continuous Evaluation of Shear Wave Velocity from Bender Elements during Monotonic Triaxial Loading [PDF]
Materials, 2023 Few researchers have attempted to experimentally evaluate the low-strain shear wave velocity (Vs) of specimens undergoing large strain deformations. They report that the Vs is practically unaffected by the strains, and the reasons behind this behavior ...

Anisotropy of lacustrine soils in a large oedometer equipped with bender elements
Soils and Foundations, 2020 Lacustrine soils from the former Texcoco Lake within the Basin of Mexico, some 14 km north of Mexico City, have unique geotechnical properties. These materials have been thoroughly studied in the past, and yet, very few investigations have addressed the ...

Machine learning-based pattern recognition of Bender element signals for predicting sand particle-size [PDF]
Scientific ReportsThis study explores the potential of integrating bender element signals with a convolutional neural network (CNN) to predict the particle size distribution of relatively uniform sand.

Interpretation of International Parallel Test on the Measurement of Gmax Using Bender Elements
Soils and Foundations, 2009 This report summarizes the results of international parallel test on the measurement of the elastic shear modulus at very small strains, Gmax, using bender elements which was carried out from 2003 to 2005 by technical committee, TC29 (Stress-strain and ...
