Application to Estimate the Relative Density Profile from Centrifuge Cone Penetration Tests (Ottawa Sand F65)

This standalone application allows users to estimate relative density profiles from in-flight cone penetration test (CPT) profiles. This correlation is valid for Ottawa sand f65 and was developed by Sepulveda, A. and Zeghal, M. (2024). The correlation used the CPT tests that were conducted as part of LEAP-UCD-2017 and LEAP-RPI-2020 (see the links to the used data in “Related Data and Software” on DesignSafe). To provide a relative density profile estimate, the application prompts the user to provide the CPT profile and information associated with the specific centrifuge test being analyzed, including: (1) centrifugal acceleration, (2) centrifuge arm radius, (3) cone diameter, (4) model container width, (5) saturated unit weight, (6) average relative density from mass and volume, (7) requested CPT smoothness parameter, and (8) CPT profile data file. The application requires MATLAB Runtime which will be automatically downloaded and installed. MATLAB Runtime is a standalone set of shared free libraries that do not require the MATLAB software nor the MATLAB license.
