Prediction of undrained sinkhole collapse (2003)
Journal Article
Augarde, C., Lyamin, A., & Sloan, S. (2003). Prediction of undrained sinkhole collapse. Journal of Geotechnical and Geoenvironmental Engineering, 129(3), 197-205. https://doi.org/10.1061/%28asce%291090-0241%282003%29129%3A3%28197%29

Sinkholes are surface depressions or shafts resulting from the collapse of a submerged cavity in soil. The cavities that lead to sinkholes form as a result of underlying geology in limestone areas, or as a result of human activity such as mining or l...

The Development of a Digital Switched Mode Power Supply Controller and Controller Design Tool (2003)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Maiden, A., Purvis, A., & Kinghorn, M. (2003, March). The Development of a Digital Switched Mode Power Supply Controller and Controller Design Tool. Presented at Proc International Signal Processing Conference, Dallas, Texas

This paper presents a software tool for the autonomous design of digital Switched-Mode Power Supply compensators based on step -response. The program uses a Genetic Algorithm (GA) to locate an optimal controller configuration within a search space. S...

Critical-state parameters for an unsaturated residual sandy clay (2003)
Journal Article
Toll, D., & Ong, B. (2003). Critical-state parameters for an unsaturated residual sandy clay. Géotechnique, 53(1), 93-103. https://doi.org/10.1680/geot.53.1.93.37255

This paper presents experimental data from constant water content triaxial tests on a residual soil from Singapore, tested under unsaturated conditions with measurements of matric suctions. The data for critical-state conditions from these tests are... Read More about Critical-state parameters for an unsaturated residual sandy clay.

Numerical models in soft ground tunnelling (2003)
Book Chapter
Augarde, C. (2003). Numerical models in soft ground tunnelling. In B. Topping (Ed.), Progress in civil and structural engineering computing (285-314). Saxe-Coburg

Numerical modelling has been used for a number of years for problems relating to soft-ground tunnelling (i.e. where the ground being excavated is not rock). Three problems require solutions in soft ground tunnelling. Firstly the effects tunnelling wi... Read More about Numerical models in soft ground tunnelling.
