What is it? |
|
|
The GDS Triaxial Testing System (GDSTTS) is a
fully automated advanced triaxial testing system designed
principally for stress path testing due to the direct actuation of
axial stress through the hydraulically controlled ram in the base of
each cell. GDSTTS can run advanced tests such as stress paths, slow
cyclic and K0, all under PC control. In fact, using the flexibility
of GDSLAB software, almost any user-defined test may be performed.
Due
to the extensive GDS range of pressure controllers and triaxial
cells, each system may be configured exactly to the customers
specification and budget. |

| Overview |
| |
The system is based on the
classic Bishop & Wesley-type stress path triaxial cell, and the GDS
pressure/volume controller. Three of these pressure controllers link
the computer
to the test cell as follows:
- one for axial stress and axial
displacement control.
- one for cell pressure control.
- one for setting back pressure and
measuring volume
change.
