Recently, with the development of new piling methods, steel sheet piles can be penetrated into various types of grounds with high quality and precision. Although piles for piled raft foundations are usually pipe piles, sheet piles could become an alternative because the construction time and cost of sheet piles could be lower than those of pipe piles. Hence, a target of this research is to demonstrate the possibility of using sheet piles for piled raft foundations. In this study, a series of model tests were conducted first to investigate the load transfer behaviours of model piled raft foundations supported by three types of piles in an air-dried sand ground. Two of them were composed of sheet piles, called plate piles, and box pile respectively, and the other was a conventional pipe pile for comparison. Both vertical and horizontal load tests were conducted, and the load sharing between the raft and piles was carefully investigated. Since the plate pile foundation exhibited outstanding behaviours, finite element method (FEM) numerical analyses were then conducted to investigate the foundation-soil interaction in plate pile foundations under vertical and horizontal loading. According to the test and calculated results, a piled raft foundation supported by sheet piles would be a promising alternative to a conventional pipe pile foundation, especially in highly-seismic areas.","PeriodicalId":48816,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Physical Modelling in Geotechnics","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2023-07-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43407908","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The penetration element was a 25 mm diameter cylinder with a conical tip. The element was advanced into a sand profile subjected to vertical pressure under at-rest conditions. The unique aspect of the testing was the inclusion of in-soil measurement tools. Null soil pressure gages were used to monitor radial pressures and in-soil linear strain devices were used to monitor radial strain at points within a measurement horizon as the penetration element was advanced into the profile. Testing revealed that radial pressures return to their ambient pre-penetration magnitudes once the element passes below a sensing horizon. In-soil radial strain measurements illustrated that the rapid drop in radial soil pressure coincides with a small, but consistent reversal in the increment of radial strain. As distance from the axis of penetration decreases this reversal is more significant. These observations have importance in considering the development of frictional resistance and axial capacity of pushed in piles and at the same time has relevance to the analysis of cone penetration testing in the determination of rational material properties.","PeriodicalId":48816,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Physical Modelling in Geotechnics","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2023-05-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44334496","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Treatment efficiency is to gain a larger diameter with specific energy applied per unit length of the column. In this study, a number of full-scale and small-scale single-fluid jet grouting elements were constructed in the field and laboratory to investigate the effects of the main operating parameters on the diameter and treatment efficiency of the columns constructed in silty sand. Furthermore, measured values and obtained trends were controlled by a comprehensive equation commonly used to predict the diameter of jet grouting columns. Results indicate that an increase in the time interval per step (▵t) and grout pressure (P), as well as a decrease in the lifting step (▵s) causes a larger column diameter and lower treatment efficiency. However, a decline in rotational speed (ω) improve both diameter and efficiency. Subsequently, the well-known equation has been modified by taking into account field measurements in this study to predict more accurate values and trends for both full-scale and small-scale jet grouting elements.","PeriodicalId":48816,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Physical Modelling in Geotechnics","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2023-04-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49619096","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Therefore, it is imperative to physically replicate such conditions in the actual stress state to understand the performance of these geotechnical structures. Hence, the objective of this paper is to present the performance of an in-flight simulator developed to simulate flooding and drawdown (ISFD) events at enhanced gravities. The working principle, design details, various components of the developed simulator, and calibration at normal (1g) and high gravities are discussed. In the present study, the calibration and performance of the ISFD setup were demonstrated on a model levee section in a 4.5 m radius large beam geotechnical centrifuge facility available at the Indian Institute of Technology Bombay, India. The rate of flooding and drawdown varied from 2.2 m/day to 7 m/day and 1.65 m/day to 4.4 m/day (in prototype dimensions), respectively, obtained with the help of pore-water pressure transducers placed on the upstream and downstream sides of the levee section. A total of three centrifuge model tests were conducted on a scaled-down levee section (with and without internal drainage layers) constructed with silty sand type material to validate the ISFD capabilities. In addition, seepage and slope stability analysis for the centrifuge models was carried out using Plaxis-2D geotechnical software which compared favourably with physically observed tests results.","PeriodicalId":48816,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Physical Modelling in Geotechnics","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2023-02-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44894234","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Horizontal static loading centrifugal tests were conducted on 13 small-scale RC pile models at 50-G centrifuge acceleration to illustrate the reproducibility of a full-scale RC pile. The experimental results show that the maximum flexural strength of a small-scale RC pile can be estimated accurately as a function of the full plastic moment Mu. The current design formula for the maximum shear strength Qs in the Architectural Institute of Japan (AIJ) standard is applied to full-scale RC members, while the final fracture mode of the proposed small-scale model corresponds to its estimation. Horizontal static loading centrifugal tests were performed on a soil–pile system consisting of dry sand and a small-scale RC pile model. Furthermore, the experimental results for the soil–pile system correspond well to the ultimate strength based for flexural fracture proposed by Broms (1964) and those for shear fracture according to the AIJ Standard (2010). The experimental results obtained in this study for the proposed small-scale RC pile model are valid for use in assessing a soil–pile system's maximum strength and final fracture mode.","PeriodicalId":48816,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Physical Modelling in Geotechnics","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2023-02-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45294574","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This allows the size of the foundation and the resulting fabrication and installation costs to be substantially reduced. The performance of mobile foundations is explored in this paper through four centrifuge model tests on a NC or LOC reconstituted calcareous silt obtained from the Northwest Shelf of Western Australia. The results are compared to three existing tests performed on a kaolin clay. The results show that under typical periodic surface sliding and intervening rests, sliding resistance evolves within a cycle with resistance peaks evident at either end of the sliding footprint due to the formation of berms, and the residual resistance increasing with sliding cycles towards a drained state. Shear and consolidation induced settlements accumulate with sliding cycles although at a reducing rate. The tests in the calcareous silt show higher normalised initial peak sliding resistance, a more dramatic loss and slower recovery of sliding resistance with cycles, and slower rate of decrease of incremental settlement compared with the response in kaolin clay.","PeriodicalId":48816,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Physical Modelling in Geotechnics","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2022-12-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44931951","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Nevertheless, only average boundary stress values are known in almost all tests already performed. Tactile Pressure Sensors represent a useful tool to assess the stress distribution in an area under loading and have been applied in some geotechnical studies. The present study presents the results of CPTs carried out on a large flexible CC in a very loose and a medium dense fine quartz sand. Tactile pressure sensors were placed on the walls of the CC, allowing the measurement of horizontal stresses and their spatial distribution in all test phases: sample formation, lateral and cavity cell filling, piston filling, sample stressing, and CPT. In particular, the Tactile Pressure Sensors were able to measure the horizontal stresses before the cavity and lateral cell filling, i.e. when no information is available about the horizontal stresses in regular tests. The measurements contribute to the discussion on the influence of the CC boundaries on the test results. The results encourage the use of tactile pressure sensors in a more routinely base in large flexible CC testing.","PeriodicalId":48816,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Physical Modelling in Geotechnics","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2022-11-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48254180","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
