Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Solve Complex Ground and Foundation Problems Presenting more than 25 years of teaching and working experience in a wide variety of centrifuge testing, the author of Centrifuge Modelling for Civil Engineers fills a need for information about this field. This text covers all aspects of centrifuge modelling. Expertly explaining the basic principles, the book makes this technique accessible to practicing engineers and researchers. Appeals to Non-Specialists and Specialists Alike Civil engineers that are new to the industry can refer to this material to solve complex geotechnical problems. The book outlines a generalized design process employed for civil engineering projects. It begins with the basics, and then moves on to increasingly complex methods and applications including shallow foundations, retaining walls, pile foundations, tunnelling beneath existing pile foundations, and assessing the stability of buildings and their foundations following earthquake-induced soil liquefaction. It addresses the use of modern imaging technique, data acquisition, and modelling techniques. It explains the necessary signal processing tools that are used to decipher centrifuge test data, and introduces the reader to the specialist aspects of dynamic centrifuge modelling used to study dynamic problems such as blast, wind, or wave loading with emphasis on earthquake engineering including soil liquefaction problems. Introduces the equipment and instrumentation used in centrifuge testing Presents in detail signal processing techniques such as smoothing and filtering Provides example centrifuge data that can be used for sample analysis and interpretation Centrifuge Modelling for Civil Engineers effectively describes the equipment, instrumentation, and signal processing techniques required to make the best use of the centrifuge modelling and test data. This text benefits graduate students, researchers, and practicing civil engineers involved with geotechnical issues.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report describes the completion of a new major centrifuge based earthquake simulation facility and a series of model tests that were conducted using the facility. The model tests used centrifuge modeling to investigate remediation of liquefaction at a bridge site. The tests were designed to help evaluate the extent of soil improvement required to mitigate the consequences of liquefaction.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report discusses the history and technical advances of centrifuge modeling of highly dynamic geotechnical events. Difficulties and validity of centrifuge modeling technology are presented along with examples of dynamic centrifuge modeling and advantages of using centrifuge modeling technology to study the behavior of geotechnical structures. The centrifuge modeling technique has a tremendous potential for experimentally determining the behavior of soils and soil structure interaction problems. The prototype stresses and strains are correctly modeled in a centrifuge model by the application of centrifugal acceleration. Past experiments clearly demonstrate the feasibility of performing dynamic centrifuge modeling under earthquake-loading, machine vibration, and blast-loading environments. There are, however, difficulties associated with dynamic centrifuge modeling; some of which can be overcome by performing experiments in large capacity centrifuges. The remaining difficulties require further research and development.

This book was released on 1988 with total page 119 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Small-scale modeling of structural and geotechnical problems has a long history. Centrifuge modeling plays an increasingly important role in this context. This report summarizes geotechnical centrifuge work which has been done up to now with particular emphasis on rock mechanics. The reader will first be familiarized with the basic principles of small-scale and centrifuge modeling. In particular, the scaling relations based on first principles and on dimensional analysis are discussed in detail. Problematic aspects are mentioned and possible solutions are described. The second chapter is the summary of geotechnical centrifuge work. While the soils work is mentioned, it is in the form of an overview; in contrast rock mechanics and associated centrifuge research are more completely described. Keywords: Geotechnical centrifuge modeling; Small-scale modeling; Rock mechanics; Literature review. (JES).
Download or read book Centrifuge Modelling for Civil Engineers written by Devendra Damale and published by . This book was released on 2015-03 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Centrifuge modelling involves testing of small scale models in the enhanced gravity field of a geotechnical Method centrifuge. This technique is particularly useful in testing materials such as soils which exhibit non-linear stress-strain behaviour and can suffer significant plastic strains. Centrifuge modelling is proven to be particularly effective in determining the failure mechanisms for a wide variety of geotechnical problems. The scale model is typically constructed in the laboratory and then loaded onto the end of the centrifuge, which is typically between 0.2 and 10 metres (0.7 and 32.8 ft) in radius. The purpose of spinning the models on the centrifuge is to increase the g-forces on the model so that stresses in the model are equal to stresses in the prototype.
