.... The database was tailored to develop empirical correlations for small-strain shear modulus (G max ) based on q c (or relative density), void ratio, and effective stress. Three empirical correlations were developed to determine G max based on: 1) void ratio, effective vertical stress, and coefficient...

... of PEMEX for the design and installation of fixed offshore platforms in the Bay of Campeche. The database was tailored to developed empirical correlations between the shear wave velocity and undrained shear strength, effective vertical stress, water content, void ratio, overconsolidation ratio and net cone...

... of consolidation settlement and to provide recommendations for analysis and design optimisation. Two case studies where the heavy FTAs in deepwater are supported by soft clay with very high void ratios are examined. The results indicate that the 2-D FEA give a good agreement when compared with the 1-D analytical...

... velocity, v s , in normally consolidated clays. Conventional geophysical testing of offshore soils involves the measurement of compression waves. Compression wave velocity, v p , in high void ratio soils (e > l) is largely a function of the compression wave velocity of water, and is unrelated...
