Pile Model Tests Using Strain Gauge Technology
PublicationOrdinary pile bearing capacity tests are usually carried out to determine the relationship between load and displacement of pile head. The measurement system required in such tests consists of force transducer and three or four displacement gauges. The whole system is installed at the pile head above the ground level. This approach, however, does not give us complete information about the pile-soil interaction. We can only determine...

Bearing capacity factors of sand assessed by model tests
PublicationPrzedstawiono wyniki własnych badań modelowych fundamentów bezpośrednich posadowionych na trzech rodzajach piasków, wykonane w warunkach płaskiego stanu odkształcenia. Przeanalizowano wpływ tarcia gruntu o ściany boczne stanowiska badawczego, wpływ efektu skali oraz powtarzalności wyników na nośność badanych fundamentów bezpośrednich. Zastosowano specjalną własną metodykę wykonywania badań modelowych eliminującą wymieniony wpływ...

Effect of preconsolidation on pile bearing capacity in model tests
PublicationBadanie wpływu prekonsolidacji gruntu w badaniach modelowych w komorze kalibracyjnej. Zagęszczone piaski kwarcowe poddano prekonsolidacji przy OCR nie większym od 7. Analiza współczynnika parcia spoczynkowego gruntu. Wpływ wskaźnika prekonsolidacji na nośność podstawy i pobocznicy pali oraz zmiany naprężeń wokół modelu i odkształcenia objętościowe masywu gruntowego.

Diagnosis of Damage in a Steel Tank Model by Shaking Table Harmonic Tests
PublicationThe aim of the present paper is to show the results of the shaking table experimental study concerning the diagnosis of damage in a model of cylindrical steel tank with self-supported roof which is filled with liquid. During the tests, the base of the structure was excited under the harmonic loading with variable frequency. The tests were repeated for different stages of damage, which was introduced in the model by easing the bolts...

Diagnosis of Damage in a Steel Tank Model by Shaking Table Harmonic Tests
PublicationDiagnosis of damage in civil engineering structures has recently become an important issue in the safety assessment procedure. Among a number of different approaches, a method of measuring the changes in natural frequencies is one of the most effective indicators of global damage. It has been successfully applied to relatively small. structures, however, the tests on large structures are very difficult and the practical application...

Verification of geotechnical numerical simulations by model tests using PIV technique
PublicationPrzedstawiono metodykę i wyniki badań modelowych stateczności fundamentów bezpośrednich posadowionych w sąsiedztwie kątowych ścian oporowych. Dla takiego złożonego układu fundament - obciążenie - podłoże gruntowe wykonano badania modelowe w płaskim stanie odkształcenia na gruncie naturalnym i analogowym. Trajektorie i izopola przemieszczeń oraz progresywny rozwój kształtu i zasięgu powierzchni poślizgu określono techniką PIV.

Comparative model tests of SDP and CFA pile groups in non-cohesive soil
PublicationThe research topic relates to the subject of deep foundations supported on continuous flight auger (CFA) piles and screw displacement piles (SDP). The authors have decided to conduct model tests of foundations supported on the group of piles mentioned above and also the tests of the same piles working alone. The tests are ongoing in Geotechnical Laboratory of Gdańsk University of Technology. The description of test procedure, interpretation...

Developing a methodology for model tests of floating platforms in a towing tank of low depth
PublicationThe paper presents two ways to mooring model of semi-submersible platform for research in the small depth towing pool. The tested model was made in the likeness of 1:100 Thunder Horse platform moored in the Gulf of Mexico at a depth of 1,920 m. Its mooring system consisted of 16 semi-taut mooring lines (chain-wire-chain) spaced Star-shape and attached at the bottom to the suction piles. The tests were performed in the towing pool...

Developing Methodology for Model Tests of Floating Platforms in Low -Depth Towing Tank
PublicationThe paper presents two different methods of physical modeling of semi-submersible platform mooring system for research in low depth towing tank. The tested model was made in the scale of 1:100 resembling the "Thunder Horse" platform moored in the Gulf of Mexico at a depth of 1,920 m. Its mooring system consisted of 16 semi-taut mooring lines (chain-wire-chain) spaced starshape and attached at the bottom to suction piles. The tests...
