Meso-Scale Heterogeneity Effects on Excess Pore Water Pressure Dissipation

Publication: GeoFlorida 2010: Advances in Analysis, Modeling & Design

Abstract

Soil properties such as void ratio, hydraulic conductivity and volume compressibility, which determine consolidation process, are usually spatially varying in natural soils. Such spatial variability of consolidation-related soil properties promotes the specific patterns of the excessive pore water pressure dissipation during consolidation process with respect to the heterogeneity configuration, which is not the same as the typical ones shown at homogeneous soils. This study highlights specific characteristics of consolidation at heterogeneous soils explored by numerical simulations.
