Using a genetic algorithm to develop a pile design method
Soils and Foundations, 2022 A genetic algorithm (GA) was used in this study to develop a standard penetration test (SPT)-based design method for the axial capacity of driven piles.

Evaluation of liquefaction potential using cone penetration test (CPT) and standard penetration test (SPT) [PDF]
Journal of Physics: Conference Series, 2020 Abstract To evaluate soil resistance against liquefaction, a simplified procedure has been developed based on directly field soil testing. There are four recommended field tests, including CPT and SPT. Soil resistance to liquefaction is measured by the safety factor SF, which is the ratio between the capacity of the soil to resist ...

Standard Penetration Test Performance in Sandy Deposits [PDF]
Journal of the Korean Geotechnical Society, 2013 This paper presents an equation to depict the penetration behavior during the standard penetration test (SPT) in sandy deposits. An energy balance approach is considered and the driving mechanism of the SPT sampler is conceptually modeled as that of a miniature open-ended steel pipe pile into sands.

Developing a Regionally Adaptable CPT-SPT Correlation Using Linear Regression and Genetic Algorithms
Applied SciencesEstablishing a correlation between the Cone Penetration Test (CPT) and the Standard Penetration Test (SPT) is of significant importance for geotechnical engineering practice. A novel correlation between CPT-qt and SPT-N60 based on a genetic algorithm (GA)

Underwater noise from geotechnical drilling and standard penetration testing [PDF]
The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 2017 Geotechnical site investigations prior to marine construction typically involve shallow, small-core drilling and standard penetration testing (SPT), during which a small tube is hammered into the ground at the bottom of the borehole. Drilling (120 kW, 83 mm diameter drillbit, 1500 rpm, 16–17 m drill depth in sand and mudstone) and SPT (50 mm diameter ...

Proposals of SPT-CPT and DPL-CPT correlations for sandy soils in Brazil
Journal of Rock Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering, 2017 Field tests in geotechnical engineering are fundamental for identification of the underground conditions. The standard penetration test (SPT) is the most commonly used geotechnical approach.

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.Abstract Background Sickle cell disease (SCD) is an autosomal recessive hemoglobinopathy affecting millions of individuals worldwide. The clinical expression and psychosocial burden of SCD vary widely across geographical, cultural, and healthcare system contexts, underscoring the need for setting‐specific approaches to assessment.
