The saturated permeability coefficient of soil is an inherent variable due to its inhomogeneity and the inaccuracy of monitoring. To explore the stability and failure probability of bedrock laminar slope under heavy rain...

In order to observe the effected strip of geogrid-reinforcement, a series of geogrid pull-out tests are conducted in a test box which has one Plexiglas wall, applied 4 different vertical pressures on each specimen prepar...

Since the coefficients of variation of soil properties vary in a large range, the real reliability index for the soil slope designed using the partial factor method also fluctuates in a range. This drawback limits the ap...

For the expansive soils of Nanning in Guangxi province of China different drying environments are acquired to test the shrinking characteristics and water retention by setting different temperature and humidity condition...

According to deformable coordination condition, the sliding soil mass will deform to adapt to the curve of logarithmic spiral which will lead to energy dissipation. To quantify this energy dissipation, two multi-blocks p...

In recent years, the distributed fiber optic sensing technology has become a new tool in the research area of geotechnical tests and measurements and played an increasingly important role in deformation monitoring of geo...

The statistics of uncertain rock and soil parameters can be updated with the information from different sources such as in-situ measurements and field observations via probabilistic back analysis, which can be further us...

Landfill slip will cause losses of lives and properties and serious environmental pollution. At present, the methods for stability of landfills are few. The drainage well to control the stability of the landfill at an in...

Plants are sophisticated and intelligent natural construction materials. They can be used for enhancing the stability of shallow soil slopes and minimizing surface erosion. It is evident that the use of plants can be low...

Needle-punched GCL and HDPE geomembrane (GM) are widely used in impermeable engineering, and the whole shear strength of multi-layer composite liner with GCL is crucial for the slope stability. A large simple-shear testi...

In order to investigate the performance of with embankment slopes reinforced waste tires and geocells, the model tests on reinforced the embankment slopes with waste tires and geocells are carried out respectively, and t...
