Centrifuge Model Test on the Settlement of Valley-Type Loess Filled after Construction and Subjected to Rainfall Infiltration by Jiwen Zhang, Jie Cao, Bo Li, Kunye Zhou, Xilin Lü

“…To provide a comparison, a centrifuge model test of loess filling body on a flat ground was conducted, and results showed that the settlement of loess fill during the construction stage is larger than the one at the postconstruction stage, and the unloading rebound deformation caused by decreasing gravity is about 15% of the deformation induced by increasing gravity. Two centrifuge model tests were conducted to study the settlement of the loess filling body in a valley; the varying characteristics of settlement and earth pressure with time at the postconstruction stage and subjected to rainfall infiltration were investigated. …”
