Open-source application software developed in Python3 for interpreting the preconsolidation pressure of fine-grained soils in incremental loading oedometer testing. pySigmaP includes nine methods such as the methods of Casagrande, Pacheco-Silva, Butterfield, Oikawa, Becker et al., Morin, Onitsuka et al., Wang and Frost, and Boone.
