Analysis of piezocone penetration under different drainage conditions with the two-phase Material Point Method [PDF]
The piezocone penetration test (CPTU) is commonly used to identify the soil profile and to estimate material properties. Depending on the soil type, ranging from clay to sand, undrained, partially drained or drained conditions may occur during cone ...

Numeric analysis of large penetration of the cone in undrained soil using fem
Numeric analysis of the large penetration of the cone in undrained soil using finite element method (FEM) is presented. Until now the computation procedures has not been developed to such an extent, that they could provide numerical solution of large ...

Microstructural study of the deformation zones during cone penetration in silt at variable penetration rates [PDF]
During conventional cone penetration testing in silt, the soil will normally be partially drained. If the penetration rate varies, time for drainage is altered and therefore the measured cone resistance and pore pressure will change.

Analysis of the cone penetration test in layered clay [PDF]
This paper presents an analysis of the cone penetration test in multi-layered clays using the commercial finite-element code Abaqus/Explicit. The von Mises yield criterion and its associated flow rule are assumed to model the plastic behaviour of ...
