    • Characterization and Engineering properties of Natural Soils used for Geotesting 

      L Heureux, Jean-Sebastien; Lunne, Tom (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)
      Benchmarking is of significant importance in geological and geotechnical engineering, for testing and verifying innovative soil investigation methods and foundation solutions. This Special Issue aims to present detailed ...

    • Characterization and engineering properties of the NGTS Onsøy soft clay site 

      Gundersen, Aleksander; Hansen, Ragnhild; Lunne, Tom; L Heureux, Jean-Sebastien; Strandvik, Stein Oddvar (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)
      In the 1960s, NGI investigated numerous potential research sites and established the first Onsøy soft clay site in 1968. In 2016, the NGTS project established five research sites, one of which is the NGTS Onsøy soft clay ...

    • CPTU correlations for Norwegian clays: an update 

      Paniagua Lopez, Ana Priscilla; D'Ignazio, Marco; L Heureux, Jean-Sebastien; Lunne, Tom; Karlsrud, Kjell (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)
      Geotechnical design in clay areas in Norway is mainly based on piezocone (CPTU) tests results. Strength and stiffness parameters are usually derived from CPTU parameters and empirical correlations. In order to improve ...

    • Engineering properties of Norwegian peat for calculation of settlements 

      Long, Mike; Paniagua Lopez, Ana Priscilla; Grimstad, Gustav; Trafford, Andrew; Degago, Samson Abate; L Heureux, Jean-Sebastien (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)

    • Evaluation and monitoring of man-made slope failure at Øysand, Norway 

      Shin, Yunsup; Choi, J.C.; Quinteros, Santiago; Carlton, Brian David; L Heureux, Jean-Sebastien; Seong, J. (Chapter, 2022)

    • Evaluation and Monitoring of Slope Stability in Cold Region: Case Study of Man-Made Slope at Øysand, Norway 

      Shin, Yunsup; Choi, Jung Chan; Quinteros, Santiago; Svendsen, Ida; L Heureux, Jean-Sebastien; Seong, Joohyun (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)
      Recently, the road and railways infrastructure developments in Norway have led to renewed interests on the geotechnical challenges associated with slope stability under freezing-thawing cycles. Despite the amount of research ...

    • Halden research site: geotechnical characterization of a post glacial silt 

      Blaker, Øyvind; Carroll, Roselyn; Paniagua Lopez, Ana Priscilla; DeGroot, Don J.; L Heureux, Jean-Sebastien (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)
      This paper describes the geology and geotechnical engineering properties of the Halden silt; a 10–12 m thick deposit of fjord-marine, low plasticity clayey silt. Over the last six years, the test site has been well ...

    • Modelling of mobility of Rissa landslide and following tsunami 

      Liu, Zhongqiang; L Heureux, Jean-Sebastien; Glimsdal, Sylfest; Lacasse, Suzanne (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)

    • Site characterisation and some examples from large scale testing at the Klett quick clay research site
