Mechanism of piezocone penetration tests under partial drainage conditions

open access: yesYantu gongcheng xuebao
In the natural state, the constraints of soils are between completely drained and undrained conditions. Due to the influences of the probe size, penetration velocity, soil properties and other factors, the partial drainage conditions will occur during ...

Performance of mixed formulations for the particle finite element method in soil mechanics problems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
This paper presents a computational framework for the numerical analysis of fluid-saturated porous media at large strains. The proposal relies, on one hand, on the particle finite element method (PFEM), known for its capability to tackle large ...

Selection among CPTU-Based Liquefaction Models

open access: yesProcedia Engineering, 2011
AbstractIn this paper, a process is taken to select probabilistic models for liquefaction/cyclic softening potential evaluation based on case histories with piezocone penetration test (CPTu) data. Emphasis of the paper is placed on establishing a relationship between the probability of liquefaction/cyclic softening and the safety factor determined with

Field Testing of a Smart Geomat Based on Fiber Optic Sensors and Sensor Fusion for Levee Monitoring

open access: yesJournal of Flood Risk Management, Volume 18, Issue 2, June 2025.
ABSTRACT Real‐time monitoring of the functionality of river embankments, especially during flood events, is an increasingly important topic in the new scenario outlined by climate change. To address this issue, the concept of the “smart levee” has recently emerged, based on the fusion of information from different types of sensors to obtain, remotely ...

Optimal Operation of BESS for Maximum Use of Its Energy in Power System Load Frequency Control Considering Economic and Technical Objectives

open access: yesIET Generation, Transmission &Distribution, Volume 19, Issue 1, January/December 2025.
The primary objective of this study is to propose a methodology for setting the frequency of an automatic generation control system when integrating battery energy storage systems (BESS) and wind turbines. The introduced approach leverages an energy management system (EMS) designed to minimize the operational costs of thermal units while optimizing the

Landslides in sensitive soils, Tauranga, New Zealand. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
In the Tauranga region sensitive soil failures commonly occur after heavy rainfall events, causing considerable infrastructure damage. Several notable landslides include a large failure at Bramley Drive, Omokoroa in 1979, the Ruahihi Canal collapse in ...
