Abstract: Digital image correlation (DIC) is used in this paper to study two-dimensional spatial soil deformations nonintrusively. Adaptive cross correlation (ACC), which is an advanced cross-correlation algorithm that utilizes ...

Abstract: This paper presents an experimental investigation on soil deformation around uplift plate anchors in sand by using digital image correlation (DIC). The experimental setup consists of a camera, loading frame, plexiglass ...

Abstract: The fundamental premise of this research is that transparent synthetic materials with geotechnical properties similar to natural soils can be used in model tests to study three-dimensional deformation and flow problems ...

Abstract: Experimental models to measure spatial deformation patterns within a soil mass are typically limited by the fact that soil sensors do not provide a continuous image of the measured continuum. Additionally, soil sensors ...

Abstract: This paper presents an analytical solution methodology for a tubular structure subjected to a transient point loading in low-strain integrity testing. The three-dimensional effects on the pile head and the applicability ...
