Abstract: The morphology of fragments produced by grain fragmentation is a cause for great concern in many areas such as rockfill dam and the mining industry. Therefore, there is a need to conduct a quantitative analysis of the ...

Abstract: Based on a core flooding experiment, a multiphase flow model considering the heterogeneity of porosity, permeability, capillary pressure, and relative permeability (i.e., the fully heterogeneous model) is proposed to ...

Abstract: It is acknowledged that porosity and voids encapsulated in rocks significantly affect the mechanical behavior of specimens from laboratory observations. In this study, a proposed conceptual porosity model was idealized to ...

Abstract: Concrete-face rockfill dams (CFRDs) usually face different safety problems, such as dam cracks caused by uneven deformation, face slab cracking, dam slope instability, and excessive leakage, during their long-term operation. ...

Abstract: The design and construction of concrete face rockfill dams (CFRDs) usually require a rapid and accurate prediction of deformation behavior to support dam optimal design and safety evaluation. Deformation prediction and ...

Abstract: An increasing number of concrete faces rockfill dams (CFRDs) are being built on deep alluvium foundations. Understanding the behavior of CFRDs that are built on alluvial foundations is critical to the performance assessment ...

Abstract: Silane coupling agents (SCAs) are a type of antistripping agent for improving the adhesive property between acidic aggregate and hydraulic asphalt. To evaluate the modified effect, find the optimal dosage of SCA, and study ...
