Slope Stability Analysis Of Class I Landfills With Co Disposal Of Bios
… capacity landfills is rapidly increasing. Proper analysis and design on such fills have pushed the boundaries of geotechnical engineering practice, in terms of proper identification and assessment of strength and deformation characteristics of waste materials. The engineering properties of …

Landslide susceptibility mapping through enhanced dynamic slope stability analysis using earth observing satellite measurements
… in mountainous regions. For most types of slope failure, soil moisture plays a critical role because increased pore water pressure reduces the soil strength and increases stress. The combined effect of soil moisture in unsaturated soil layers and pore water pressure in saturated soil layers …

Slope stability analysis and landslide susceptibility assessment on the SE foot slopes of Mt Cameroon
… This thesis presents an inventory and thorough analysis of small–scale devastating landslides that occurred in recent years around the city of Limbe at the base of Mt Cameroon. A multidisciplinary approach was adopted in order to understand the complex and multi-phase nature of landslide …

Variation Of Geotechnical Strength Properties With Age Of Landfills Accepting Biosolids
… it creates a new problem – the geotechnical stability of landfills. In current literature, classical geotechnical testing methods have been followed to find the strength properties of these landfill materials. Furthermore, geotechnical methods of slope stability analyses have been employed to …

Seismic hazard analysis and seismic slope stability evaluation using discrete faults in northwestern Pakistan
… based on proper seismic hazard and seismic slope stability analyses. This study presents the methodology and results of seismic hazard and slope stability analyses in northwestern Pakistan. The first part of the thesis describes the methodology used to perform deterministic and probabilistic …

Modelling the effects of soil variability and vegetation on the stability of natural slopes.
… reinforcement, have a significant effect on the stability of a natural slope. However, in practice, these factors are not commonly considered in routine slope stability analysis. This is due mainly to the fact that the effects of soil variability and vegetation are complex and difficult to …

Triggering Mechanisms and Stabilization of a Massive Pit Slope Failure
The 2013 Bingham Canyon slope failure was probably the largest non-volcanic landslide in NorthAmerican history. Because it took place in an active mine with substantial monitoring systemsalready in place, its geological setting and progress to failure are better understood than mostlandslides. The …

A Voxel-Based Approach to the Real-Time Simulation of Sands and Soils
… A multi-level height- eld is used to track the slopes of the soil-covered surfaces for slope stability analysis and soil slippage computations. The surfaces of the simulated soils are visualized each frame by extracting a polygonal mesh from the voxel grid with the Marching Cubes and Transvoxel …

Lateral load capacity of drilled shafts in jointed rock
… It contains two parts: a kinematic and a kinetic analysis. In the kinematic analysis, the removability theorem of a convex block is expanded to analyze the removability of a block intersecting a pile and the removability of a combination of blocks. Based on these removability theorems, a method …

Probability analysis of slope stability
… of geotechnical engineers to accurately model slope performance is compromised by a variety of factors. The net result of these considerations is that the exact behavior of slopes cannot be accurately predicted. Hence, geotechnical engineers resort to a factor of safety approach to reduce the …

Geoenvironmental aspects of coal refuse-fly ash blends
… impacts on soil, ground water, revegetation, and slope stability. The purpose of this study was to determine how fly ash addition to coal refuse would impact on certain geotechnical properties of the refuse disposal piles, and whether the refuse-fly ash blends would be suitable as co-disposed …

Analysis of a Lateral Spreading Case History from the 2007 Pisco, Peru Earthquake
… was observed in the Canchamana complex. Later analysis using the pre- and post-earthquake images showed that the lateral displacements were concentrated only on some regions. Despite the lateral homogeneity of the marine terrace, some cross-sections showed large displacements while others had …

Comparison of Groundwater Seepage Modeling in Approximate Original Contour and Geomorphic Valley Fill Design
… constructed drains to maximize geotechnical stability using the conventional design method termed Approximate Original Contour (AOC). Seepage from valley fills tends to be elevated with respect to calcium, magnesium, alkalinity and sulfates and there is evidence that, in high concentrations, …

Centrifuge modelling of railway embankments under static and cyclic loading
… design of these embankments is usually done with slope stability analysis? method of slices. In the case of railway embankments, a uniformly distributed load is applied over a central ballast width of the embankment to represent the load induced by the train. This however does not take into …

Residual Strength of Franciscan-Derived Clay
… of 2017 after a period of heavy rainfall, a slope destabilized behind Fremont Hall on the campus of Cal Poly San Luis Obispo. The geology of this slope stability failure is the Franciscan Complex. The Franciscan Complex, when weathered in place, results in clay soil that makes up the typical …
