• A geochemical, mineralogical and geotechnical characterization of the low plastic, highly sensitive glaciomarine clay at Dragvoll, Norway 

      Helle, Tonje Eide; Aagaard, Per; Nordal, Steinar; Long, Michael; Bazin, Sara (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)
      The sediments at the NTNU research site Dragvoll, Trondheim, Norway accumulated in seawater close to the glacier front during the Pleistocene-Holocene transition. A comprehensive site investigation and laboratory test ...
    • Experiences from site-specific landslide early warning systems 

      Michoud, C.; Bazin, Sara; Blikra, Lars Harald; Derron, Marc-Henri; Jaboyedoff, M. (Journal article, 2013)
      Landslide early warning systems (EWSs) have to be implemented in areas with large risk for populations or infrastructures when classical structural remediation measures cannot be set up. This paper aims to gather experiences ...
    • Field and Laboratory Test Results from NGTS soft clay site – Onsøy 

      Gundersen, Aleksander S.; Hansen, Ragnhild C.; Bazin, Sara; Forsberg, Cathinka S. (NGI-rapport;20160154-10-R, Report, 2019-12-02)
      In 2017, the Norwegian GeoTest Sites (NGTS) project established five research sites, one of which is the new Onsøy soft clay site located close to Fredrikstad city. This report contains all results from field and laboratory ...
    • Glacio-marine clay resistivity as a proxy for remoulded shear strength: correlations and limitations 

      Long, Michael; Pfaffhuber, Andreas Aspmo; Bazin, Sara; Kåsin, Kristoffer; Gylland, Anders Samstad; Montaflia, Alberto (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)
      In geotechnical engineering in Norway, Sweden and Canada the presence of sensitive and/or quick clays poses a major challenge. Formation of these clays involves the leaching of salt from the pore fluid. Thus it has been ...
    • Resistivity and chargeability survey for tunnel investigation: a case study on toxic black shale in Norway 

      Bazin, Sara; Lysdahl, Asgeir Olaf Kydland; Viezzoli, Andrea; Gunther, T; Anschütz, Helgard; Scheibz, Jürgen; Pfaffhuber, Andreas Aspmo; Radic, T; Fjermestad, Halldis (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)
      In the past few years, the focus on Alum shale hazards and the need for efficient mapping tools have increased in Norway. Alum shale is highly toxic and poses a substantial obstacle to infrastructure development such as ...
    • Standardization of in situ tests and field work 

      Kåsin, Kristoffer; Kirkevolden, Ole Vidar; Instanes, Arne; Andersen, Espen; Sinitsyn, Anatoly; Bazin, Sara; Lysdahl, Asgeir Kydland; Gundersen, Aleksander Sæthereng (NGI-rapport;20190154-03-R, Report, 2019-12-04)
      The Norwegian Geo-Test Sites (NGTS) research infrastructure, with funding from The Research Council of Norway, creates a national research test site facility for geotech-nical research. The five national test sites are ...
    • Standardization of in situ tests and field work 

      Kåsin, Kristoffer; Kirkevolden, Ole Vidar; Instanes, Arne; Andersen, Espen; Sinitsyn, Anatoly; Bazin, Sara; Lysdahl, Asgeir Kydland; Gundersen, Aleksander S. (NGI-rapport;20160154-03-R, Report, 2019-12-04)
      This report presents a brief overview of standards for in situ tests and field work carried out within the NGTS project.
    • Stochastic analysis of tsunami runup due to heterogeneous coseismic slip and dispersion 

      Løvholt, Finn; Pedersen, Geir Kleivstul; Bazin, Sara; Kühn, Daniela; Bredesen, Rolv Erlend; Harbitz, Carl Bonnevie (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2012)
      Most tsunami models apply dislocation models that assume uniform slip over the entire fault plane, followed by standard analytical models based on Volterra's theory of elastic dislocations for the seabed deformation. In ...
