pySigmaP

Open-source application software developed in Python3 to determine the preconsolidation pressure of soils in incremental loading (IL) oedometer testing. pySigmaP includes nine methods such as the method of Casagrande, Pacheco Silva, Butterfield, Oikawa, Becker et al., Morin, Onitsuka et al., Wang and Frost, and Boone.
