Using Static and Dynamic Penetrometers to Measure Sea Bed Properties

Abstract

The long-term goal of this work is to develop a set of tools that can be used to determine insitu values for certain sediment geotechnical properties that are needed when predicting the potential for burial when mines impact the sea bottom.
