One-dimensional test problems for dynamic consolidation
Closed-form solutions are presented for some one-dimensional problems involving the dynamic response of saturated porous media. These solutions are useful for validating finite element codes for dynamic consolidation of soil. While they consider only elasticity and small strains, they do allow a check on the concurrent wave transmission and ...

ONE DIMENSIONAL CONSOLIDATION AND DIRECT SHEAR TESTS: EXPERIMENTAL SETUP BASED ON A LABVIEW APPROACH [PDF]
This work describes an experimental setup that was developed in order to automate the one-dimensional consolidation and the direct shear Tests. This experimental setup assures repeatability in the data acquisition, avoiding human errors, mainly when the tests data vary with a high dynamic.

A procedure to analyze a one dimensional compression test [PDF]
The subsoil of Mexico City (SMC) is highly compressible when loads are applied. This feature is associated with many uncertainties and complex issues during foundation design processes.

Many practical engineering problems are seriously different from the assumptions which are considered for one-dimensional consolidation test and need to concentrate on three-dimensional consolidation of soil under different boundary conditions.

Experimental study on permeability and strength characteristics of MICP-treated calcareous sand
Calcareous sand is the main fill material for island reclamation projects, but untreated calcareous sand might not be used as a reclamation fill due to its poor mechanical properties.

The accessible crushing property of calcareous sand leads to poor mechanical properties. Cement is usually used for solidification treatment in engineering. Nano-SiO2 (NS) can further improve the strength of cement-stabilized calcareous sand (CCS).

NUMERICAL ESTIMATION OF THE ONE-DIMENSIONAL CONSOLIDATION BEHAVIOR OF CLAY [PDF]
The consolidation behavior of clayey soils is traditionally evaluated in the laboratory using the one-dimensional consolidometer test. A new oedometer cell design with a ring of 60 mm in height, 75 mm in diameter was made to measure the excess pore-water

Effect of Anisotropy on Compression, Strength and Permeability Properties of Clayey Soil
Anisotropy on compression, strength and permeability of a clayey soil selected from Mosul city was studied in this paper. Laboratory standard tests were conducted on sets of duplicate disturbed and undisturbed specimens prepared in the vertical, 45º ...
