Methodology to Apply Unrestricted Consolidation Theory to Practice

提出了标准测径仪试验，如果进行得当，可以用来确定所有必要的参数，以实现无限制理论在岩土工程实践中的固结方面的原状和重塑的土壤。这项研究将综合并证明无限制固结理论在广泛的软土中应用的可行性，并将开发一种方法，使所有岩土工程师都能以最小的时间和设备成本轻松地应用该理论。

It is proposed that the standard oedometer test, properly conducted, can be used to determine all the necessary parameters to implement the unrestricted theory in the consolidation aspects of geotechnical engineering practice for undisturbed and remolded soils. This research would synthesize and prove the viability of the use of unrestricted consolidation theory for a wide range of soft soils, and would develop the methodology for applying the theory in a form that could be easily used by all geotechnical engineers at a minimum cost in time and equipment.
