Abstract

This paper presents results from a 180° (cf. 360°) axisymmetric model, which allows viewing of soil movement as a circular penetrometer advances into the granular soil. The model is tested in a geotechnical centrifuge, with digital photographic techniques used to track soil movement. Selected results are presented with initial discussion.
