Popis: SummaryComments on the uses of penetrometers in general are followed by remarks upon an earlier one for use on dry beaches. Some discussion is given of the behaviour of beds of sand disturbed by shocks and converted thereby into a state of quasi-liquefaction. Finally, a description is given of a tall pull-down penetrometer which can be used on beaches covered by modest depths of water.
