Abstract:
Personal digital assistant (PDA) applications to improve the effectiveness and reliability in geotechnical investigations have been developed. Because of PDA's legerity and mobility, it is an excellent choice for use with a simple global position system (GPS) in geotechnical field work, such as site reconnaissance, subsurface investigation, surface investigation, safety evaluation, testing, and instrumentation. Using PDAs in geotechnical engineering can save traditional field paper forms, avoid repeated record input, reduce the risk of wrong data interpretation, and shorten the time and space “barrier” between the office and the field. After the field data are collected on the PDA, they can be transferred to a desktop personal computer (PC) for further processing and reporting. The desktop PC is designated to handle more complicated analyses and visual presentations. Specialized functions of applications to operate PDA and GPS, as well as for the desktop PC, were developed according to the characteristics of the geotechnical tasks. The concept and framework were applied for three geotechnical assistant systems: drilling investigation assistant system, surface geologic investigation assistant system, and slope safety evaluation assistant system. In addition, an example illustrates the application of GPS, PDA, and geographic information systems for debris flow reconnaissance. Using PDAs improves the effectiveness and reliability of geotechnical investigations and is promising for further development.

Abstract:
Over the years, the field of geotechnical engineering focused on physical, chemical and mechanical aspects of the geomaterials. However, recent developments in environmental geotechnics have highlighted the impact of biological processes on geo-materials and their performance. Also, the present day geotechnical problems favour biological interventions to develop eco-friendly and sustainable technology. In view of this, the present study is a preliminary investigation on the impact of microbial loading on fine-grained soils. In addition, a protocol has been developed to establish ‘bio-geo interface’ between bacteria and the geo-material. However, long term studies are demanded in this direction for in-depth understanding of the mechanism for development of prospective application.

Abstract:
Here, results of geotechnical investigations for the proposed Dominica international airport are presented. The main geotechnical investigative method is comprised of boreholes to 30 m depth with standard penetrating testing (SPT) and undisturbed Shelby tube and disturbed split-spoon soil sampling. The geotechnical investigation confirms the findings of a companion geophysical investigation, which concludes that bedrock is not likely to be encountered within the proposed depths of excavation for the airport. Geophysical and geotechnical data correlations are developed. Seismic velocity and the number N of blow counts with SPT (SPT N) appear to be well correlated by a linear model. A model relationship between SPT and seismic dynamic elastic modulus is developed using seismic velocity. SPT N is better correlated with the dynamic elastic modulus than with seismic velocity. The study shows that the seismic velocity and the derived dynamic elastic moduli can accurately predict soil strength as measured by SPT blow counts.

Abstract:
The purpose of this study is to improve site investigation in geotechnical engineering via the evaluation and development of statistical approaches for characterizing the spatial variability of soil properties and the development of site investigation simulation software for educational use. This study consists of four components: statistical characteristics, data measurement, simulation, and educational training. Statistical measures of spatial variability of soil properties were examined for three different geographical areas where soil formation processes differ to assess the influence on the spatial variability of soils. Statistical measures of spatial variability were also calculated for a case history where blasting was used as a method of soil improvement to evaluate the effects of man-made changes to soil structure. The concept of spatial aliasing was employed to estimate the maximum allowable sampling interval for field data as a function of the spatial correlation properties. Once a maximum statistically allowable sampling interval is determined for a specific soil property, the minimum statistically required number of soundings / borings is calculated to perform an economical site investigation at a specific site. A simple and efficient simulation technique was proposed to generate correlated, multi-dimensional simulations of soil properties. Based on limited data, the proposed simulation technique generated accurate and correlated simulations of soil properties that are consistent with the observed or proposed correlation structures of soil properties. Lastly, a geotechnical site investigation simulation program with a wide variety of in situ and laboratory tests was developed to allow students to plan and perform a comprehensive site investigation program. The simulation generates an input file based partly on the statistical characteristics of the spatial variability of soil properties analyzed in this study and partly on traditional values. Spatial variability in soil properties is modeled via correlated random fields, interpolation, and a decomposition method to yield realistic geotechnical data. Via the simulation, students are able to obtain experience and judgment in an essential component of geotechnical engineering practice. The four components of this research (statistical characteristics, data measurement, simulation, and educational training) focus on the improvement of site investigation performance in geotechnical engineering, thereby improving reliability analysis in geotechnical practice.

Abstract:
A statistical comparison between the pre-investigations and the detailed site characterization while tunneling was performed in three areas of different rock quality in the Södermalm’s Tunnel. An overview of the site investigations performed prior to the construction works and the consequences in the tunneling method are also presented in this study. The statistical analyses in this study showed low correlation within the results obtained from the geotechnical investigations performed prior and while tunneling. The correlation diminishes as the rock mass quality decreases; however, in areas where the rock mass quality is high, the correlation is not as elevated as expected. The low association within those results may be due to diverse factors: the concentration of the pre-investigations in mostly three areas along the trace of the tunnel, and the extension of those results to the rest of the tunnel; the inappropriate utilization of the investigation techniques; and the lack of geotechnical data in the regional areas of Stockholm. The inaccurate geological characterization given by the pre-investigations leaded to great challenges in the most fractured and altered areas of the tunnel. A collapse occurred where the glaciofluvial sediments were in contact with the rock. The excavation had to be stopped and additional rock reinforcement had to be applied. Therefore, an increase of the expenses in terms of time and budget were the major consequences of the inaccurate predictions.

Abstract:
Geotechnical engineering is strongly associated with large uncertainties. Exploring a medium (soil) that is almost entirely and completely hidden from us is no easy task. Investigations can be made only at discrete points, and the majority of a specific soil volume is never tested. All soils experience inherent spatial variability, which contributes to some uncertainty in the design process of a geotechnical structure. Furthermore, uncertainties also arise during testing and when design properties are inferred from these tests. To master the art of making decisions in the presence of uncertainties, probabilistic description of soil properties and reliability-based design play vital roles. Historically, the observational method (sometimes referred to as the “learn-as-you-go-approach”), sprung from ideas by Karl Terzaghi and later formulated by Ralph Peck, has been used in projects where the uncertainties are large and difficult to assess. The design approach is still highly suitable for numerous situations and is defined in Eurocode 7 for geotechnical design. In paper I, the Eurocode definition of the observational method is discussed. This paper concluded that further work in the probabilistic description of soil properties is highly needed, and, by extension, reliability-based design should be used in conjunction with the observational method. Although great progress has been made in the field of reliability-based design during the past decade, few geotechnical engineers are familiar with probabilistic approaches to design. In papers II and III, aspects of probabilistic descriptions of soil properties and reliability-based design are discussed. The connection between performing qualitative investigations and potential design savings is discussed in paper III. In the paper, uncertainties are assessed for two sets of investigations, one consisting of more qualitative investigations and hence with less uncertainty. A simplified Bayesian updating technique, referred to as “the multivariate approach”, is used to cross-validate data to reduce the evaluated total uncertainty. Furthermore, reliability-based design was used to compare the two sets of investigations with the calculated penetration depth for a sheet-pile wall. The study is a great example of how a small amount of both time and money (in the pre-investigation phase) can potentially lead to greater savings in the final design.

Abstract:
The research presented within this thesis covers the development of a means to continuously monitor shear waves in a laboratory triaxial apparatus and down-hole during seismic cone penetration. This work resulted from an investigation of ageing of Fraser River Sand using a bender element triaxial apparatus. Shear wave propagation times from bender elements were interpreted using published time domain and frequency domain techniques. These techniques provided similar results, but the variability exceeded the effect of ageing. The frequency domain and time domain techniques had different shortcomings. The two techniques could be combined to converge on a single frequency-dependent propagation time that was independent of the trigger signal waveform. This contribution was capable of resolving the small increase in shear wave velocity with age duration. The frequency domain component of the combined bender element technique could run continuously during an experiment. With this further contribution, it was possible to track the change in shear wave propagation time throughout an experiment. The continuous bender element testing was not observed to influence the effect of ageing. It was found that in Fraser River Sand ageing had a small effect on the shear wave velocity, no effect on the ultimate strength, and a significant effect on the shear stiffness over the intermediate small-strain range (observed from 0.01 to 1%). The normalized shear stiffness curve shifts to larger strains and becomes more brittle with ageing. The concepts of the developed continuous bender element method are not restricted to this equipment or even to just bender element testing. The continuous bender element method was adapted to down-hole seismic testing in the field. This contribution resulted in a continuous profile of the shear wave velocity during seismic cone penetration testing that is obtained without stopping the cone penetration. The developments in this thesis provide a continuous measure of the shear wave velocity through a laboratory experiment and a continuous profile with down-hole penetration depth, i.e. the shear wave velocity is measured every time the other parameters are taken.

Abstract:
Two sites around the Maricopa and Sierrita Mountains respectively were investigated to provide supporting data for the State of Arizona proposal to the Department of Energy to construct a Superconducting Super Collider (SSC) facility. The main feature of the facility is a 53 mile racetrack shaped tunnel. The proposed Maricopa SSC tunnel passes through three main types of rock--approximately 35 miles of indurated fanglomerates, 10 miles of granodiorites and 8 miles of volcanic and sedimentary rocks. The proposed Sierrita SSC tunnel also passes through three main rock types--approximately 19 miles of indurated fanglomerates, 18 miles of granodiorites and granites and 16 miles of volcanic and associated rocks. Data were obtained from three sources--existing data; field investigations including drill logs and geophysics and laboratory testing. Empirical design approaches were compared with rock classifications (RQD, RMR, Q) at the tunnel horizon. Results indicate mostly routine tunneling at both sites. Recommendations are made for: further logging and testing of existing core; further field mapping; additional boreholes in rock and alluvium; and in situ testing of alluvium.

Full text
Abstract:
The geophysical technique known as Multichannel Analysis of Surface Waves, or MASW (Park et al., 1999) is a relatively new seismic characterisation method which utilises Rayleigh waves propagation. With MASW, the frequency dependent, planar travelling Rayleigh waves are created by a seismic source and then measured by an array of geophone receivers. The recorded data is used to image characteristics of the subsurface. This thesis explains how MASW was used as a geotechnical investigation tool on windfarms in the lower North Island, New Zealand, to determine the stiffness of the subsurface at each wind turbine site. Shear‐wave velocity (VS) profiles at each site were determined through the processing of the MASW data, which were then used to determine physical properties of the underlying, weathered greywacke. The primary research site, the Te Rere Hau Windfarm in the Tararua Ranges of the North Island, is situated within the Esk Head Belt of Torlesse greywacke (Lee & Begg, 2002). Due to the high level of tectonic activity in the area, along with the high rates of weathering, the greywacke material onsite is highly fractured and weathering grades vary significantly, both vertically and laterally. MASW was performed to characterise the physical properties at each turbine site through the weathering profile. The final dataset included 1‐dimensional MASW shear‐wave evaluations from 100 turbine sites. In addition, Poisson’s ratio and density values were characterised through the weathering profile for the weathered greywacke. During the geotechnical foundation design at the Te Rere Hau Windfarm site, a method of converting shear wave velocity profiles was utilised. MASW surveying was used to determine VS profiles with depth, which were converted to elastic modulus profiles, with the input parameters of Poisson’s ratio and density. This study focuses on refining and improving the current method used for calculating elastic modulus values from shear‐wave velocities, primarily by improving the accuracy of the input parameters used in the calculation. Through the analysis of both geotechnical and geophysical data, the significant influence of overburden pressure, or depth, on the shear wave velocity was identified. Through each of the weathering grades, there was a non‐linear increase in shear wave velocity with depth. This highlights the need for overburden pressure conditions to be considered before assigning characteristic shear wave velocity values to different lithologies. Further to the dataset analysis of geotechnical and geophysical information, a multiple variant non‐linear regression analysis was performed on the three variables of shear wave velocity, depth and weathering grade. This produced a predictive equation for determining shear wave velocity within the Esk Head belt ‘greywacke’ when depth and weathering data are known. If the insitu geological conditions are not comparable to that of the windfarm sites in this study, a set of guidelines have been developed, detailing the most efficient and cost effective method of using MASW surveying to calculate the elastic modulus through the depth profile of an investigation site.

Abstract:
The purpose of the thesis is the determination of potentially seismic active sources and of the dynamic response evaluation of surface and subsurface structure at sites where the geometric and dynamic properties of the ground can strongly amplify seismic motions. A combination of methods involving the study of geology, geophysics and seismology disciplines permitting cross-comparison of techniques in a robust approach is applied to address these issues. The study area is focused in Kastelli-Kissamou and Paleohora half graben basins in northwestern and southwestern Crete that is located in one of the most seismically active parts of the Africa-Eurasia collision zone. Ground truthed geological field survey, 2D Electrical Resistivity Tomography (ERT), Horizontal to Vertical Spectra Ratio (HVSR) technique using microtremors and microseismicity study are conducted. Microseismicity study involves two different earthquake dataset acquired from a regional permanent network installed on Crete and local temporal network installed on Paleohora. 2D Electrical resistivity tomography (ERT) reveals seven faults in the territory of Kastelli-Kissamou and three faults large scale faults in the territory of Paleohora basin. HVSR technique using microtremors is applied only in the populated area of Kastelli and Paleohora basins and reveals five fault zones in Kastelli and four major fault zones in Paleohora crosscutting the densely populated areas. The effects of the surface and subsurface structure are well patterned in the horizontal to vertical spectra ratios. One amplified clear frequency, two high amplified clear frequencies, broad and flat or low amplitude HVSR peaks attributes the effects of surface and subsurface structure on seismic ground motion. The effects of soft rocks, stiff soils, thick and thin alluvial deposits, fault zones, lateral heterogeneities and discontinuities on seismic ground motion are determined. The higher ground amplification level is observed in Paleohora (A=5.7) compared to Kastelli (A=3.4). Three case studies of building vulnerability evaluation in Paleohora half-graben basin using HVSR technique and microtremors are presented. Temporal seismological network is installed in the territory of Paleohora to study the seismotectonic setting of southwestern Crete. Microseismicity using data from the permanent seismological regional network of Crete is used to compare the seismicity of the study areas.

Abstract:
Offshore structures are used in a variety of applications ranging from the traditional oil and gas extraction facilities to emerging renewable energy concepts. These structures must be secured to the seabed in an efficient and cost effective manner. A novel approach is to use shallow inverted buckets as foundations, installed by suction, in place of the more usual piles. These foundations lead to cost savings through reduction in materials and in time required for installation. It is necessary to determine how these foundations perform under typical offshore loading conditions so that design calculations may be developed. This thesis presents experimental data from a comprehensive series of investigations aimed at determining the important mechanisms to consider in the design of these shallow foundations for dense sand. Initially the long term loading behaviour (e.g. wind and current) was investigated by conducting three degree of freedom loading {V:M/2R:H} tests on a foundation embedded in dry sand. The results were interpreted through existing work-hardening plasticity theories. The analysis of the data has suggested a number of improved modelling features. Cyclic and transient tests, representing wave loading, were carried out on a foundation embedded in an oil saturated sand. The novel feature of the cyclic loading was that a 'pseudo-random' load history (based on the 'NewWave' theory) was used to represent realistic loading paths. Of particular interest was the tensile load capacity of the foundation. The results observed suggested that for tensile loading serviceability requirements rather than capacity may govern design. Under combined-load cyclic conditions the results indicated that conventional plasticity theory would not provide a sufficient description of response. A new theory, termed 'continuous hyperplasticity' was used, reproducing the results with impressive accuracy. Surprisingly, under the conditions investigated, loading rate was found to have a negligible effect on response.
