Centrifuge modeling of one-step outflow tests for unsaturated parameter estimations [PDF]
Hydrology and Earth System Sciences, 2006 Centrifuge modeling of one-step outflow tests were carried out using a 2-m radius geotechnical centrifuge, and the cumulative outflow and transient pore water pressure were measured during the tests at multiple gravity levels.

Centrifuge modeling of rocking-isolated inelastic RC bridge piers. [PDF]
Earthq Eng Struct Dyn, 2014 Experimental proof is provided of an unconventional seismic design concept, which is based on deliberately underdesigning shallow foundations to promote intense rocking oscillations and thereby to dramatically improve the seismic resilience of structures.

Centrifuge modelling of monotonic and cyclic lateral responses of monopiles in quartz and carbonate sands [PDF]
E3S Web of ConferencesThis study evaluates the soil-structure interaction of monopiles subjected to monotonic and cyclic lateral loading by means of centrifuge modelling. The monopile were installed in two types of dense sands: quarts and carbonate. To evaluate the static and

Centrifuge Modeling of NAPLs (Preliminary Title) Centrifuge Modeling of Flow Processes. [PDF]
, 1996 Abstract : The research investigated the use of a geotechnical centrifuge to model nonaqueous phase liquids (NPALs) flowing through a porous media. Experiments modeled saturated and unsaturated flow through homogeneous and heterogeneous sands, smooth parallel plates, and rough rock fissures.

Impact of Suction on the Near Surface Lateral Soil Response using Centrifuge Modeling [PDF]
E3S Web of Conferences, 2023 Recent studies have shown that unsaturated soils lead to greater lateral pile capacity. This study aims to experimentally assess how suction stress affects the lateral response of piles in unsaturated cohesionless soil.
