Abstract: The prefailure instability of the granular soil slope due to lateral stress relief under the drained condition has been investigated experimentally under the constant shear drained (CSD) path in the literature. However, ...

Abstract: The discrete element method (DEM) is applied to investigate instability of frictional particulate assemblies sheared under the triaxial constant shear drained (CSD) condition. The instability in loose samples occurs in the ...

Abstract: There are some attempts to evaluate Hardin’s equation for transition soils, i.e., sand mixed with a systematic increase of fines (particle size≤0.075  mm) content, fc. The most common finding is that maxmium shear ...

Abstract: The discrete element method (DEM) is applied to investigate instability of frictional particulate assemblies sheared under the triaxial constant shear drained (CSD) condition. The instability in loose samples occurs in the ...

Abstract: The monotonic behavior of pond ash was studied experimentally and with a particular focus on evaluating the applicability of critical state soil mechanics framework in synthesizing and modeling the observed mechanical ...

Abstract: A case study was conducted in the Teesta subcatchment in Bangladesh for determining design flood flows and corresponding flood stages for different return periods using frequency analysis and MIKE 11 model. Different ...

Abstract: Bangladesh is a flood prone country where huge damages take place every year. Therefore, to minimize flood extremes, it is important to control the flood peaks at the upstream area through suitable watershed management ...

Abstract: Tailings dams, which are storage structures for tailings, often are constructed using the tailings itself. A large number of tailings dam failures have been reported recently, especially due to static liquefaction, and can ...
