A COMPREHENSIVE SEISMIC RESPONSE AND SLOPE STABILITY ANALYSIS FRAMEWORK FOR EVALUATING THE STABILITY OF HYDRAULIC-FILL DAMS
(2018-08-13)
The stability and serviceability of earthen embankment structures such as dams and levees are extremely crucial to avoid the catastrophic consequences of the failure of these structures. Such man-made geo-structures are ...
Response of Unsaturated Soils Under Monotonic and Dynamic Loading over Moderate Suction States
(2017-09-27)
The understanding of the mechanical behavior of the unsaturated soils has been significantly enhanced due to the recent advancement of technology and modifications to the conventional testing devices. However, the ...
SEISMIC RESPONSE AND DEFORMATION ANALYSES OF EARTHEN DAMS
(2019-12-05)
Assessment of the response of earthen structures, such as dams and levees, during earthquake events, is crucially important to geotechnical engineers. It is imperative to perform seismic response analysis to assess the ...
A Critical State Approach to the Mechanical Behavior of Early-Age Cemented Paste Backfill
(2019-12-16)
Low plasticity to non-plastic mine tailings are typically transported to a storage area through pipelines in form of slurry or thickened tailings. The main concern with such tailings deposits is the possibility of liquefaction ...
