.... To bridge this gap, the current research is performed on the large deformations for bearing capacity of suction caisson in marine clay for southern part of China Sea. In this work, a two-dimensional axisymmetric finite element model (FEM) is established to study the behaviour of suction caisson foundations...

... ABSTRACT The purpose of this study is to investigate the strength development of dredged marine clay stabilized with basic oxygen furnace (BOF) steel slag from early curing to later curing times using the shear wave velocity. The vane shear test (LVS), unconfined compression test (UCS...

... of various factors on measured shear strength, correlation with other in-situ and laboratory test results, and problem for determination of undrained shear strength as shear strength for design was mainly examined for Japanese marine clays (Tsuchida, 2000). Field vane shear test (FVT) is one of the popular...

... as it controls how deep the structure will be settling into the seafloor. The Coupled Eulerian-Lagrangian (CEL) technique in Abaqus/Explicit was used to estimate the soil resistance on tubular members and piles loaded to very large displacements into the marine clays. Horizontal tubular members were pushed...

... Abstract We studied the influence of allophane, organic soil, and Toyoura sand on the consistency limits of marine clay. These things are typically observed in Japanese marine clay and may explain its natural high water content and high plasticity. The tests using Singapore marine clay...

... ABSTRACT The geotechnical characteristics of marine clay are large compressibility and low bearing capacity. To utilize the ground that consists of this type of soil, it is essential to carry out an optimal ground improvement procedure. The deep cement mixing and grouting method has been...

... ABSTRACT: Interbedded layers of glacial deposits and marine or glacimarine clay layers are a common feature of offshore sediment. Typically, offshore marine clays are lightly overconsolidated sensitive clay. Some case histories on submarine landslides show that the slip surface passes through...

... computed tomography (CT) at each step. The scanning images were processed, and showed that cracks were formed by gas expansion in the marine clay. The fracture toughness of the tested marine clay was measured, and the results were found to fall within the range of the measured values from literature...

... laboratory tests for offshore soil investigation. It is also a tool for identification of different soil units, and is suggested to be used together with interpretation of the borehole logs and classification tests. Gas bubbles can be formed in marine clays due to gas hydrate dissociation and also...

... ABSTRACT In this study, iron and aluminum electrodes were put in marine clay which was taken from the south coast in Korea to increase the undrained shear strength by inducing the densification and cementation between clay particles and precipitates which were developed by electric...

... ABSTRACT The sub-soils in Northwestern Peninsular Malaysia consist of sedimentary soil deposits which form alternate layers of clay and sand. In this paper, the characteristics of marine clay in Northwestern Peninsular Malaysia are investigated based on field and laboratory test data gathered...

..., the CPTu results may be highly linked to undrained shear strength (s u ). Estimation of undrained shear strength of clayey soils including marine clays from CPTu requires piezocone factors, which are generally derived using empirical correlations. However, previous studies on the empirical piezocone...
