Physical Modelling of Tailings Dam Breach
Tailings dams are constructed in stages, exhibit sediment deposits located in the reservoir upstream of the dam crest (beaches) generated from slurry deposition, and are commonly designed with shallower upstream slopes in contrast with conventional water storage dams. Current breach models for the …

Representation Of Dam-Breach Geometry Using Quadtree Local Mesh Refinement
… in two-dimensional numerical modeling have allodam break floods to be simulated with larger domains than ever before. These types of simulations are important to meet the needs of inundation mapping, consequence analysis, and emergency planning for the large number of significant and high-hazard …

Stream channel adjustments and persistence of change in response to beaver damming on a fluvial fan, Odell Creek, Montana
Beaver damming in streams is thought to increase bed elevation through in-channel sediment storage, thus beaver reintroductions are used as a river restoration tool to repair incised stream channels. However, effects of beaver damming are dependent on specific stream hydrologic and geomorphic …

Seepage monitoring and diagnosis of distresses in an earth embankment dam using probability methods
Failure of embankment dams may 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 …
