A Semi-Empirical Method for Predicting Soil Void Ratio from CPTu Data via Soil Density Correlation

Applied Sciences
Soil void ratio is a key parameter in geotechnical engineering design and geological hazard prevention. However, existing methods for determining void ratio are plagued by issues such as difficulty in sampling, susceptibility of samples to disturbance ...

Marine soil behaviour classification using piezocone penetration test (Cptu) and borehole records

, 2021
Several piezocone penetration test (CPTu)-based soil behaviour classification systems (SBCs) have been developed for standard sites, where clays, silt, and sand dominate.

Investigation of piezocone dissipation test interpretation in clay accounting for vertical and horizontal porewater pressure dissipation with a large deformation axisymmetric penetration model

Frontiers in Built Environment
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.
