The seabed Cone Penetration Test (CPT) system is a common method for investigating offshore soil. This paper focuses on new subsea CPT assessing physical and mechanical properties of marine sediments. enables automatic docking dismantling the probe rods underwater. constant-rate penetration mechanism basis core component CPT, allowing rod cone to penetrate seafloor sediment. Double hydraulic cy...

This paper undertakes liquefaction analysis with simplified procedures standard penetration test (SPT) data and cone (CPT) obtained from an offshore wind farm in the Changhua area. The soil resistance calculated by SPT-based procedure suggested Japan Railway Association was agreement laboratory results. CPT is widely used site investigation of farms. However, Taiwan’s registered professional en...

The massive construction in poor lands has encouraged engineers to use deep foundations in order to transfer superstructure loads to the subsoil. Since soil excavation, sampling, and laboratory testing as a part of site investigation are relatively difficult, in-situ tests such as cone penetration test (CPT) as a very informative test may be recommended. The CPT has been widely used in engineer...

bearing capacity prediction of axially loaded piles is one of the most important problems in geotechnical engineering practices, with a wide variety range of methods which have been introduced to forecast it accurately. machine learning methods have been reported by many contemporary researches with some degree of success in modeling geotechnical phenomena. in this study, a fairly new machine l...

The newly developed Complex Picture Test (CPT) examines main cognitive domains, especially perceptual and visual-spatial abilities. The potential usefulness of the CPT in the assessment of dementia was evaluated. Patients with different forms of dementia [14 vascular dementia (VaD), 30 Alzheimer's disease (AD), 6 Parkinson's disease dementia (PDD)], 12 subjects with mild cognitive impairment (M...

The determination of liquefaction potential is required to take into account a large number of parameters, which creates a complex nonlinear structure of the liquefaction phenomenon. The conventional methods rely on simple statistical and empirical relations or charts. However, they cannot characterise these complexities. Genetic algorithms are suited to solve these types of problems. A genetic...
