Experimental and Analytical Investigation of Mine Burial Penetration

Abstract

A comprehensive treatment of the geotechnical aspects of mine burial in cohesive sediments includes characterizing the sediment strength properties, developing and validating an impact burial model, and predicting post-impact settlement. The research in the past two years focused on the second item, developing and validating an impact burial model.
