An Introduction to a New Drum Centrifuge at DUT

Abstract:

Geotechnical centrifuges are globally used to investigate the structures which of behaviors are strongly dependent on the physical properties of soil. A new 1.4 m diameter 450 g-Tonne drum centrifuge GT450/1.4, manufactured by Broadbent & G-max company, has been installed at Dalian University of Technology in 2009. Control and data acquisition systems are provided in modular form, allowing a flexible choice of sampling and recording modes. The details including the development of the facility, the additional accessories required and a centrifugal test of submarine landslide are described.
