Cone penetration index for soil behaviour type prediction. [PDF]
Several approaches have been proposed to classify soil types using both cone and piezocone penetration tests. The chart relating the normalized cone resistance (Q tn ) and the friction ratio (F r ) has proven to be the most reliable method.

Estimating Hydraulic Conductivity of Overconsolidated Soils Based on Piezocone Penetration Test (PCPT) [PDF]
Overconsolidated (OC) soils may develop a low or negative pore pressure during PCPT. Thus, it is challenging to develop an “on-the-fly” estimation of hydraulic conductivity from PCPT results.

Investigation of piezocone dissipation test interpretation in clay accounting for vertical and horizontal porewater pressure dissipation with a large deformation axisymmetric penetration model [PDF]
The piezocone (CPTu) dissipation test is used to characterize how the applied load from the penetrating cone is distributed between the soil and pore fluid during both penetrometer advancement and when penetration is paused.
