Size effect in centrifuge cone penetration tests
PublicationOkreślenie efektu skali w badaniu wciskania stożka w zagęszczonych piaskach kwarcowych na podstawie badań modelowych w wirówce geotechnicznej. Badania przeprowadzono na dwóch piaskach kwarcowych przy przyśpieszeniach od 30g do 100g. Analizowano efekt skali związany ze stosunkiem średnicy modelu (mini-stożka) do średniej średnicy ziaren oraz wpływem poziomu naprężenia na opór stożka. Wpływ poziomu naprężenia powoduje powstanie geometrycznego...

Derivation of the scaling laws used in geotechnical centrifuge modelling-application of dimensional analysis and Buckingham Π theorem
PublicationGeotechnical centrifuge modelling has been a world-wide used technology in physical tests. In this paper a derivation of scaling laws by dimensional analysis for the centrifugal modelling is presented. Basic principles of centrifuge modelling are described. Scaling laws for slow events like consolidation and fast events like dynamic loads are shown. The differences in scale factors for both processes are noticed. The aim of this...

Combined environmental testing device for picosatellites
PublicationAs access to space conditions becomes more available, both technically and economically, scientists’ interest in launching finer and more sophisticated experiments grows. To be qualified for launch, such experiments need to be carefully tested prior to the event. The tests should represent actual launch conditions as closely and in a detailed manner. Typical tests for payload include: vibration tests, thermal and vacuum tests,...

PHYSICAL MODELLING OF GEOTECHNICAL STRUCTURES IN PORTS AND OFFSHORE
PublicationThe physical modelling of subsoil behaviour and soil-structure interaction is essential for the proper design of offshore structures and port infrastructure. A brief introduction to such modelling of geoengineering problems is presented and some methods and experimental devices are described. The relationships between modelling scales are given. Some examples of penetration testing results in centrifuge and calibration chamber...

Polarization-dependent optical absorption in phosphorene flakes
PublicationThe interest of 2D materials is constantly increasing because of their very attractive mechanical, electrical and optical parameters. They have been used in many applications, e.g. photodetectors, sensors, modulators, insulators. One of the recently discovered 2D materials is phosphorene. In contrast to graphene, phosphorene has a direct bandgap tuned by numbers of layers in the 2D structure. The phosphorene flakes are strongly...

Prediction of Pile Shaft Capacity in Tension Based on Some Direct CPT Methods—Vistula Marshland Test Site
PublicationThis paper presents different CPT methodologies for the prediction of the pile shaft resistance in tension on the example of three reference screw piles of the Jazowa test site in Poland. The shaft capacity was estimated based on the cone resistance, sleeve friction and CPT excess pore water pressure. Three piles with diameter 0.4 m and the length varied from 8 m to 14.6 m were subjected to static load tests in tension. Their...

On analysis of nanocomposite conical structures
PublicationThis research examines the analysis of rotating truncated conical baskets reinforced by carbon nanotubes around the two independent axes. A time-dependent analysis is considered, and the nonlinear dynamic governing equations are extracted using the energy method. Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) reinforced the conical basket, and the structure's mechanical properties are determined based on the several distributions of carbon nanotubes....
