Abstract
A new 2.2 m diameter drum centrifuge with a maximum acceleration level of 440 g has been installed at the Institute of Geotechnical Engineering of the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Zurich (Eidgenossiche Technische Hochschule: ETHZ). Twin concentric shafts allow separate control of a central tool table and a drum channel. Together with multipurpose actuator units, which can be fitted to the tool table, radial, circumferential and vertical control of construction processes or test activities may be achieved. Control and data acquisition systems are provided in modular form, allowing a flexible choice of sampling and recording modes. The development of the facility, the additional accessories required and the first geotechnical centrifuge test are described.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
