APPLICATION OF CENTRIFUGE MODEL TESTS TO SETTLEMENT BEHAVIOR UNDER GROUNDWATER RECOVERY

Axially - Loaded Centrifuge Pile Tests

Laboratory Model Tests to Study the Behavior of Soil Wall Reinforced by Weak Reinforcing Layers

In this paper we suggest a method to calculate the first integrals of a special system of the first order of differential equations. Then we use the method for finding the solutions of some differential equations such as, the differential equation of RLC circuit

Settlement Behavior of Shallow Foundations in Unsaturated Soils under Rainfall

Shallow foundations are often situated on unsaturated zones above the groundwater table. In this study, the influence of rainfall infiltration on the settlement behavior of shallow foundations was investigated using numerical analyses. The numerical solutions were compared with experimental data from in-situ load tests. The relative importance of rainfall intensities and groundwater table posit...

Observations on centrifugation: application to centrifuge development.

This report outlines the background to the development of an automated, serial, discrete centrifuge, reporting on the criteria considered essential in such an instrument. We established the criteria by examining the detailed logistics of centrifuge operation in a hospital laboratory. The mean sample load per run, using six centrifuges, was 13.6 samples, and the user-selectable cycle time ranged...
