Centrifuge modelling of piled embankments [PDF]
, 2008 It is becoming increasingly necessary to construct on land that was previously considered inappropriate for construction, such as soft clay. The properties of soft clay make it highly compressible and low in shear strength, meaning that bearing capacity failure and excessive settlement are of concern.

Centrifuge modelling of unsaturated slopes subjected to the integrated effect of groundwater and rainfall infiltration [PDF]
E3S Web of Conferences, 2023 The stability of unsaturated soil slopes is comprehensively discussed with the rainfall characteristics. However, pre-existing groundwater table is also common in many tropical mountainous regions. Additionally, perched water table could be generated due

Generalized centrifugal-force model for pedestrian dynamics [PDF]
Physical Review E, 2010 A spatially continuous force-based model for simulating pedestrian dynamics is introduced which includes an elliptical volume exclusion of pedestrians. We discuss the phenomena of oscillations and overlapping which occur for certain choices of the forces.

Dynamic centrifuge modelling tests on seismic response of super-high core dams
Yantu gongcheng xuebao, 2022 In order to study the seismic behaviors of a super-high core dam under design seismic intensity, 4 dynamic centrifuge modelling tests are carried out. The models have the same scale and different centrifugal accelerations. Thus, the acceleration response,

Scaling laws for centrifuge modelling of explosion-induced cratering in sand
Yantu gongcheng xuebaoThere are shortcomings in generality and applicability for the traditional crater scaling laws, and the Coriolis effects on explosion cratering in centrifuge tests are still unclear.
