13 Feb 2002: The test series has shown that macroscopic partially drained behaviour was different from that expected in the drained or undrained conditions. ... There is no evidence of pore pressure building up in any of the events conducted in the nine tests.

17 Oct 2008: Field test data was used to validate the behaviour observed in the centrifuge tests. ... This model links strength and stiffness values measured in centrifuge tests to field scale test results.

6 Jan 2000: Roscoe, Schofield, and Wroth (1958) used test paths to critical states to explain water content changes in drained triaxial tests and pore-pressure changes in undrained tests. ... Coulomb reports tension and shear tests on two square inch cross section

9 Nov 2005: However, only when drainage conditions during a piezocone test are fully understood can the piezocone measurements be correlated to the soil properties. ... The implications of a partially drained piezocone test are discussed, and the use of multi-rate

17 Dec 1998: I developed drum centrifuges in Cambridge to reduce the cost of centrifuge tests, to improve the accuracy, and reduce the labour and the time needed for any one test series. ... Our test data are used to validate numerical models and our small scale

26 Jun 2001: Tunnel stability in the first test series was well predicted by plasticity theory. ... The test series conducted on model tunnel headings showed the stability to be strongly influenced by the heading geometry.

22 Nov 2004: Batch and flow-through leaching tests were employed to access the effect of the binder and bioaugmentation treatments on heavy metal leachability under varied test conditions, over a 28 days test ... Results show that binders were able to reduce metal

26 Jun 2001: Seven strip injection tests revealed that surface heave was dependent on the ratios of grouting pressure over overburden and grouting depth over width. ... Three multiple-point asymmetrical sequential injection tests revealed the effect of an increase in

11 Jun 2009: The first series of tests on tunnels in sand served as a baseline for comparison for the subsequent tests involving pipes and piles. ... The tunnelling tests illustrate that the Gaussian curve typically used to model settlement trough data is not

29 Nov 2007: Pipe uplift behaviour in clay was studied by a series of centrifuge tests. ... Tests were conducted in uniform silica sands with grain sizes varying over an order of magnitude and at different densities.
