... in settling ponds. Soft soils may experience a variety of natural deformations during consolidation. Consolidation-related structures are commonly observed in settling column experiments, geotechnical centrifuge tests and in the field. This paper deals with the specific class of soft-sediment intrusive...

... A geophysically and geotechnically instrumented settling column is used in conjunction with a geotechnical centrifuge, to monitor changing physical properties during the self-weight consolidation of a kaolin clay slurry. The column was equipped to monitor changes in excess pore pressure, bulk...

... A series of centrifuge tests on embankment-type soil structures founded on soft clay is being conducted to evaluate a time-dependent constitutive model that incorporates the combined effects of creep and hydrodynamic consolidation. Because final coding of this new constitutive model has not yet...

Capillary pressure relations, used to predict connate water saturation in the reservoir, are best determined by displacement of fluids through a semipermeable barrier. The centrifuge method gives good results...
