Experimental and theoretical investigations of pile and penetrometer installation in clay
(Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). Department of Civil, Structural and Environmental Engineering, 2000)This thesis advances our understanding of the type of ground movements and strains that take place during installation of closed-ended piles and penetrometers in clay, with particular reference to penetrometers with flat ... -
Sleeved concrete cylinders subject to hard impact
(Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). Department of Civil, Structural and Environmental Engineering, 2000)The purpose of this thesis is to determine the response of sleeved concrete cylinders to low velocity hard impact. Previous research has shown that, when concrete is uni-axially loaded and subject to the high strain rates ... -
Linear and non-linear spectral analysis of offshore lattice structures
(Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). Department of Civil, Structural and Environmental Engineering, 2000)Most of the offshore structures that are used in oil and gas exploration and production are lattice jacket structures. Until recently these structures have been sited in relatively shallow water, however, the trend now ... -
An overview of the University College Dublin hollow cylinder apparatus
(2001)This presentation is divided into two sections. First, an example showing the influence of the principal stresses on the strength and deformation characteristics of a soil is discussed. Secondly, an overview of a unique ... -
An overview of the University College Dublin hollow cylinder apparatus
(2001)Most sedimentary soils are inherently ansiotropic. Their response to loading will depend on the directions of the principal stresses. In most geotechnical problems the principal stresses gradually rotate during loading. ... -

Development of a New Apparatus for Hollow Cylinder Testing
(PhD thesis, University College Dublin (Supervisor Dr. T.F. Widdis; Extern Prof. David Muir Wood), University College Dublin, Faculty of Engineering and Architecture, 2001)The Hollow Cylinder Apparatus (HCA) is the only soil test device that can facilitate independent control of both the magnitudes and directions of the principal stresses. The stress history and loading conditions at a point ...
