Rolling test in geotechnical centrifuge for ore liquefaction analysis
Résumé
To study the development of liquefaction in ore cargo during maritime transportation, a new Rolling Test device has been designed to support similar stresses to those observed in a vessel. It can be used in an 80×g macrogravity field in the 5.5mradius IFSTTAR geo-centrifuge. Its main characteristics and benchmark test results are presented
