Abstract

This paper investigates the rate effect of cone penetration tip resistance. The focus is on the relationship between the penetration resistance and the penetration rate under partially drained conditions. When the penetration rate is increased from a relatively low rate, soil resistance decreases. Beyond a certain value, any further increase in penetration rate causes an increase in the resistance. Numerical simulation of constant rate and variable rate cone penetration tests were carried out using the two-phase material point method (MPM). The penetration rate at which the calculated resistance started to increase was used to estimate the consolidation coefficient. Centrifuge modelling of variable rate cone penetration tests explained the rate effect in terms of consolidation and viscosity.
