... spinning, where soil undrained shear strength increases linearly with depth, simulating the typical soil strength profile in offshore environment. Pre-embedded plate anchor was pulled out with displacement and resistance measured. Anchor capacity is quantified and presented in the form of capacity factor...

... to study the soil movement patterns surrounding the anchor during the uplifting process, by using PIV (particle image velocity) method and the close range photogrammetry technique. Results are presented in the form of capacity factor (Nc) and are also compared with previous numerical and empirical...
