This report describes three centrifuge tests carried out as part of the NEMISREF project, at 50g,to investigate the performance of cemented zones as a liquefaction remediation measure beneaththe base of existing buildings.

This report describes three centrifuge tests carried out as part of the NEMISREF project, at 50g,to investigate the behaviour of containment walls as a liquefaction remediation measure forexisting buildings.

This report describes three centrifuge tests carried out as part of the NEMISREF project, at 50g,to investigate the behaviour of inclined, non-load-bearing micro-piles as a liquefactionremediation measure for existing buildings.

Centrifuge testing requires transmitting data collected in a moving, increased-acceleration environment to a data acquisition system. Typical transmission methods include analog and digital data transmission through slip rings. However, these methods have ...

This data report presents results from dynamic centrifuge tests IT04 and IT06 which modelled 1. A completed landfill with a single geomembrane-clay liner system with 45 side slope and 7 m deep waste and 2. A landfill cell, with a single geomembrane-clay liner ...

The prediction of liquefaction and resulting displacements is a major concern for earth structures located in regions of moderate to high seismicity. In this paper a numerical procedure is used in which both generation and dissipation of pore fluid pressure ...

Scale factors for centrifuge modelling have been traditionally defined using dimensional analysis concepts. This is the case for example of centrifuge modelling of unsaturated water flow. However, scale factors governing suction, discharge velocity and time ...

<p>This research project addressed key needs for advancing the design of pile foundations in soil profiles that are susceptible to liquefaction and lateral spreading during earthquakes. A series of large-scale dynamic centrifuge model tests were performed ...

Current design guidelines for geosynthetic-reinforced soil structures disagree over the shear strength parameters that should be selected to characterize the backfill material. Most geosynthetic reinforcing materials are classified as extensible inclusions ...

Limit equilibrium methods are evaluated with respect to their ability to predict failure of geosynthetic reinforced slope models tested in a geotechnical centrifuge. The variables considered in the centrifuge program were the reinforcement spacing, reinforcement ...
