Abstract:
Abstract The oedometric test is a test widely used in civil engineering. The main objective of this article has been to investigate the primary consolidation behaviour of the intact soil samples by comparing the results obtained from finite element analysis computations in PlAXIS2D with the experimental result of the soil samples obtained from the site of the Al-Ahdab oil field in the east of Iraq. Three different material models were utilized during the finite element analysis, comparing the performance of the more advanced constitutive Soft Soil material model against the modified Cam Clay a

Abstract:
Soil consolidation testing using an oedometer and rowe cell. Oedometers are often used on clay and soft soils. However, in the development of the rowe cell device, the results of lowering soft soil were better than the oedometer. The advantage of this rowe cell is that it can determine the saturation value of the soil samples tested. The rowe cell tester can measure the pore water pressure at the beginning and end of each consolidation stage. This rowe cell can provide suitable settlement for soft soils. This consolidation test to obtain soil parameters such as Cv and Cc by using the rowe cell

Abstract:
Stress history is usually determined by interpreting the results of oedometer tests to obtain the preconsolidation stress using traditional methods such as those proposed by Casagrande and Janbu. Both these methods are based on the assumption that the soil experiences a change in stiffness, from a stiff response to a soft response, close to the preconsolidation stress. Disturbed soils, however, especially overconsolidated clays of low plasticity, exhibit a soft response at low stresses, thereby making the interpretation of oedometer tests using traditional methods extremely difficult.

Abstract:
The chemical and mechanical behaviours of saturated bentonite were experimentally and analytically investigated. A series of oedometer tests on saturated bentonite was conducted. By replacing the cell fluid during the oedometer test, one-dimensional osmotic consolidation and swelling behaviour were observed. The experimental results were simulated numerically using a constitutive model by considering the influence of electrochemical phenomena of clay mineral crystals on the macrostructural behaviour. It was concluded that the typical mechanical swellability of water-saturated bentonite in oedo

Abstract:
Numerous laboratory swelling tests have been reported for the measurement of swelling pressure and the amount of swell of an expansive soil. These test methods generally involve the use of a conventional one-dimensional oedometer apparatus. Few attempts, however, have been made to formulate a theoretical framework to simulate the testing procedures or to visualize the different stress paths followed when using the various methods. The simulation of the oedometer tests on expansive soils is required to fully understand the prediction of heave. The correct measurement of swelling pressure is req

AbstractThe determination of creep properties still relies almost entirely on the incrementally loaded oedometer test introduced about 100 years ago. Although the simplicity of the test assures a robust evaluation of soil parameters, it also introduces some shortcomings like discontinuity of the evaluated parameters and the long duration of the test. In this study, the performance of the variable rate of strain (VRS) oedometer test for determination of creep properties of a sensitive soft clay is studied.

Abstract:
The time factor, T, and the degree of consolidation, U, from Terzaghi's theory of consolidation can be shown to have a straight line relationship when plotted as log[– T/log (T/U)] versus log T. Oedometer tests were conducted on five soils with a wide variation in properties. The results obtained establish straight line variation between log[t/log(7/δ)] and log t plots. Using this property, a method is proposed to predict the compression (δ) versus time (t) behaviour of clayey soils by measuring the compression values of a soil specimen at only two time intervals in oedometer test.
