Dynamic compaction of sand column

An apparatus for the one-dimensional impact testing is developed to study the response of a sand column confined within a rigid steel pipe subject to an impact of a dropping pounder. The aim of the test is to investigate the progressive changes in sand density due to repeated impact and the effect o...
