Centrifugal force loading device
Model
Manufacturer
Specification
A device for understanding the behavior of ground and structure systems in centrifugal fields This device uses centrifugal force to apply self-weight stress equal to that of the real thing to a scale model, etc. and examines its deformation and fracture behavior. In addition to applying centrifugal acceleration of up to 200G, it is possible to perform experiments such as static loading on the model ground under load, pile penetration and extraction, etc. Furthermore, it is possible to apply a vibration load in the horizontal direction (perpendicular to the centrifugal direction).
The computer system can automatically process the image and measurement data collected during the experiment. (Please check the application link for details such as configuration.)
