Centrifuge modelling and analytical solutions for the cone penetration test in layered soils

The interpretation of measurements from the cone penetration test is still predominately based on empirical correlations, which can be attributed to the lack of understanding of penetration mechanisms, that involve severe stress-strain and shear dilatancy close to the probe. Even so, it remains one...
