Seepage monitoring and diagnosis of distresses in an earth embankment dam using probability methods
… result in catastrophic consequences. Considering seepage and internal erosion are accounted as one of the major causes of failure in earth embankment dams, it is essential to detect any concentrated seepage and sources of distress at early stages. A number of investigation and monitoring methods …

The use of geophysical methods for dam seepage investigations and dredged oyster deposit characterization
… Missouri was effectively investigated for seepage through the dam and its outlet works using an integration of the electrical resistivity tomography, induced polarization and spontaneous potential geophysical tools. Recommendations were subsequently made based on the results of the study on …

2008 Midwest Levee Failure: Erosion Studies
… performance of a levee system. Any low spots or potential seepage paths can concentrate the flow and be detrimental to the levee. The vegetative cover is the single most important condition at a site. As seen in the Brevator case, vegetative armor can prevent failure of a levee comprised of less …

Geophysical assessment of the Lake Chesterfield site, Missouri
… analysis of surface wave, and spontaneous-potential data were acquired across the dry lake bed. The interpretation of the geophysical data indicates the top of weathered bedrock in the study area. Bedrock in the study area can be subdivided into three layers: and upper weathered layer; a …
