Laboratory Self-Weight Consolidation Testing of Dredged Material Analyzed Using a One-Dimensional Finite Strain Consolidation Method
… has shown that the properties which govern the consolidation of dredged material are best determined using a one-dimensional finite strain consolidation theory. This method requires a complete relationship between void ratio and effective stress for all expected void ratios in a dredged layer, …

Sedimentation and Consolidation of cohesive and non-cohesive soils formed under turbulent flows
Settling and consolidation of suspended clay particles are significant issue in many fields such as geotechnical engineering, coastal and hydraulic engineering, and environmental engineering. A comprehensive literature review was conducted on the settling, consolidation and erosion of mixed soil …

Comportamento non lineare di processi di consolidazione di terreni dragati e rifluiti in una vasca di colmata
… di consolidazione sotto peso proprio (c.d. self weight consolidation). Lo studio è stato finalizzato all'interpretazione di tale procedimento in termini di decorso dei cedimenti nel tempo. sono state eseguite delle elaborazioni numeriche basate sulla teoria di Robert Gibson e confrontate …

A Method for Interpreting the In-Situ Consolidation State of Surficial Seabed Sediments using a Free-Fall Penetrometer
… and deposition, and qualitatively evaluating the consolidation state of cohesive marine sediments. The method developed for improving the resolution of the mud-line simply describes a procedure of combining the data from different accelerometers with different accuracies and ranges to more clearly …

Treatment of contaminated sediments using reactive cap technology: Characterization and modeling of geotechnical, hydraulic and contaminant transport behavior of cap-sediment systems
… its soft nature has the potential for complex consolidation behavior, variable permeability, and transport of contaminants. The sediment experiences a self-weight consolidation process in addition to the consolidation induced by the weight of the reactive cap. The installation of the cap …

Rapid Measurement and Estimation of Saturated Hydraulic Conductivity of Mineral Slurries
Large strain consolidation (LSC) behaviour of mineral slurries regulates the performance of tailings management and reclamation plans. The hydraulic conductivity-void ratio relationship primarily influences this behaviour, dominating the long-term performance of fine-grained slurries with higher …

Settling and sedimentation behavior of fine-grained materials
… settling process, e.g. settling velocity or consolidation rate. In this study, settling behaviors of talcs, kaolins and attapulgite were reviewed by experiments with small and large settling columns with special focus on channel formation during sedimentation. The large settling column is …
