Measuring mechanical impedance in clayey gravelly soils [PDF]
Revista Brasileira de Ciência do Solo, 1998 Mechanical impedance of clayey and gravelly soils is often needed to interpret experimental results from tillage and other field experiments. Its measurement is difficult with manual and hydraulic penetrometers, which often bend or break in such soils.

Estimating K0-Value of In-Situ Gravelly Soils
Soils and Foundations, 1999 ABSTRACT Hatanaka and Uchida (1996) developed a simple method (named G0-equal method) for estimating K0-value of cohesionless soils by equalizing the initial shear modulus calculated from the shear wave velocity measured in the field (GOF) and that measured in laboratory (GO l ) for high-quality undisturbed samples.

Study of Gravelly Soil Core Material Using a Large-Scale Triaxial Wetting Test
Applied Sciences, 2023 Wetting deformation has a significant impact on dam safety, and is one of the leading causes of the long-term deformation of dams. For dams to operate safely, it is crucial to precisely estimate the extent of wetting deformation using a reasonable ...
