Pore Pressure Buildup in Resonant Column Tests

Journal of Geotechnical Engineering, 1984
Resonant column tests were performed on fully saturated and dry hollow cylindrical and fully saturated solid cylindrical specimens of Monterey No. 0 sand of 60% relative density subjected to 96 kPa confining pressure. The hollow specimens were tested by torsional excitation and the solid specimens by longitudinal excitation.

Resonant Column Testing of Agricultural Soils

Transactions of the ASAE, 1988
ABSTRACT REMOLDED cylindrical specimens and minimally-disturbed cylindrical samples of three types of agricultural soils were tested in a torsional-type resonant column device. The soils were tested at confining stresses close to zero to simulate field conditions.

Evaluation of Resonant Column Test Devices

Journal of the Geotechnical Engineering Division, 1976
Resonant column tests were performed by six participants in a program designed to evaluate results from various devices. The participants were Drnevich, Hardin, Woods, Shannon & Wilson, Inc., the U.S. Army Engineer Cold Regions Research and Engineering Laboratory, and the U.S. Army Engineer Waterways Experiment Station.

New Approach to Resonant Column Testing

Geotechnical Testing Journal, 2013
Abstract This paper describes a new type of torsional resonant column device that has a quasi-fixed base and free top. In this device, a relatively rigid torque transducer is placed between the bottom platen and the fixed chamber base. A large capacity torque motor excites the top platen.

Resonant Column Testing of Frozen Ottawa Sand

Geotechnical Testing Journal, 1987
Abstract The unique properties of frozen soils have posed special problems for engineers seeking to install stable structures in cold climates. Foundations, pipelines, and other structures subjected to high-frequency low-amplitude vibrations present special problems to the designer even when construction occurs in nonfrozen ground.
