Internal Piping Erosion Evaluation of Embankment Dam Considering the Spatial Variability of Soil Properties
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Piping erosion is a crucial trigger for dam breaches. However, the effects of inherent spatial variability on seepage properties have not been considered adequately, which could lead to a significant underestimation of the ...
Seismic Reliability Assessment Framework for Unsaturated Soil Slope under Near-Fault Pulse-Like Ground Motion
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The seismic reliability of soil slopes in geohazard-prone regions, particularly under near-fault earthquake conditions, poses a significant challenge. This challenge is exacerbated by the scarcity of pulse-like ground-motion ...
Applicability of Continuous, Stationary, and Discrete Wavelet Transforms in Engineering Signal Processing
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Wavelet-based signal processing techniques are widely applied in multiple disciplines. However, few studies consider the applicability of different wavelet transforms in engineering signal processing fields. Based on the ...
Scale Effect on the Apparent Anisotropic Hydraulic Conductivity of Geomaterials
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Properties of geomaterials often exhibit stratification and anisotropy due to various influencing factors such as weathering and sedimentation. However, the measurement of anisotropy is a difficult task since anisotropy ...
