Stanier, S.A. (author), Hu, P. (author), Cassidy, M.J. (author)This paper demonstrates the use of a geotechnical drum centrifuge in the calibration of a model to predict the peak punch-through penetration (qpeak) resistance of a spudcan on sand overlying clay. A series of loose sand overlying clay tests was performed and combined with an existing database of tests performed on dense sand overlying clay. The...conference paper 2012

Gaudin, C. (author)Offshore geotechnical engineering is characterized by unusual soil and loading conditions, a continuously moving frontier resulting in the requirement for innovative geotechnical solutions, and the very high cost associated with in-situ soil characterization and field testing in remote and deep oceans. As a consequence, offshore engineering...conference paper 2012
