Abstract (Spanish)
En este artículo se presentan las características de la nueva centrífuga geotécnica de la Escuela Colombiana de Ingeniería Julio Garavito. Se presentan las capacidades instaladas, aplicaciones futuras y posibilidades que ofrece la nueva centrifuga como herramienta de enseñanza y aprendizaje en geotecnia. Esta centrífuga tiene un radio de 610mm y puede alcanzar una aceleración de 200 gravedades. La centrifuga tiene instalado un completo sistema de adquisición de datos con una capacidad de 12 sensores que permiten medir diferentes propiedades. Adicionalmente, la centrifuga cuenta con cinco consolidómetros edometricos como herramientas complementarias para la preparación de suelos finos. Las múltiples posibilidades en enseñanza de la mecánica de suelos aplicada usando la nueva centrifuga se basan en la visualización de los mecanismos de falla y deformaciones producidas por diferentes estructuras geotécnicas.
Abstract (English)
This paper presents the characteristics of the new geotechnical centrifuge of the Escuela Colombiana de Ingeniería Julio Garavito, including the installed capacities, future applications, and possibilities that offer the new centrifuge as an important tool for teaching and learning in geotechnics. This centrifuge has a radio of 610mm and a maximum acceleration of 200 gravities. A very complete acquisition system with a capacity of 12 sensors to measure different properties is installed. Also, the centrifuge has five oedometric consolidometers as a complementary tool to prepared fine soils in the construction boxes. The possibilities in teaching soil mechanics and applied soil mechanics using the new centrifuge are multiple and are based on the visualization of failure surfaces and deformations produced by different geotechnical structures.
