Trunk river and tributary interactions recorded in the Pleistocene–Holocene stratigraphy of the Po Plain (northern Italy)

open access: yesSedimentology, Volume 68, Issue 6, Page 2918-2943, October 2021., 2021
Abstract Tributary rivers can contribute significantly to alluvial‐plain construction by supplying large volumes of clastic material. Their relation to the main axial river strongly influences sediment deposition and preservation. The Po Plain is fed by the Po River and a dense network of transverse tributaries draining the nearby Alpine and Apennine ...

Learning decision boundaries for cone penetration test classification

open access: yesComputer-Aided Civil and Infrastructure Engineering, Volume 36, Issue 4, Page 489-503, April 2021., 2021
Abstract In geotechnical field investigations, cone penetration tests (CPT) are increasingly used for ground characterization of fine‐grained soils. Test results are different parameters that are typically visualized in CPT based data interpretation charts.

Deformation patterns of upper Quaternary strata and their relation to active tectonics, Po Basin, Italy

open access: yesSedimentology, Volume 68, Issue 1, Page 402-424, January 2021., 2021
Abstract Despite increased application of subsurface datasets below the limits of seismic resolution, reconstructing near‐surface deformation of shallow key stratigraphic markers beneath modern alluvial and coastal plains through sediment core analysis has received little attention.

Statistical Assessment of Simplified CPTU‐Based Hydraulic Conductivity Curves

open access: yesGeofluids, Volume 2021, Issue 1, 2021., 2021
Classical theoretical approaches to evaluate CPTU‐based hydraulic conductivity gave the expression of a bilinear relation defined by KD - BqQt, for undrained and drained soils. In fact, a dividing line may be selected with a certain degree of subjectivity, and several undrained/drained points occur in opposite sites, which may make us doubt the ...

The Use of CPTU and DMT Methods to Determine Soil Deformation Moduli—Perspectives and Limitations

open access: yesStudia Geotechnica et Mechanica, 2023
The article presents the concept of determining constrained modulus—M0, initial shear modulus—G0, Young modulus—E, and rigidity index—IR on the basis of parameters from static penetration tests CPTU (Piezocone Penetration Testing), SCPTU (Seismic ...

The use of piezocone tests for high-resolution stratigraphy of Quaternary sediment sequences in the Brazilian coast

open access: yesAnais da Academia Brasileira de Ciências, 2007
Correlations between mapping units of costal sedimentary basin and interpretation of piezocone test results are presented and discussed based on examples from Caravelas strandplain, (State of Bahia), Paranaguá (State of Paraná) and Guarujá bays (State of
