Second-Order Reliability-Based Design of Unsaturated Infinite Soil Slopes
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: This paper presents an application of the second-order reliability method (SORM) to analyze shallow landslides considered as unsaturated infinite soil slopes. The accuracy of modeling the unsaturated infinite slope reliability ...
Optimum Design of Unsaturated Finite Clayey Slopes Using Second-Order Reliability Method
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper discusses the second-order reliability-based design optimization (SORBDO) of unsaturated finite slopes. An efficient search algorithm is proposed to locate the most probable slip surfaces using the Morgenstern–Price ...
Target Reliability-Based Design of Embankments Using Biopolymer-Modified Cohesive Soil
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: This study evaluates the unconfined compressive strength (UCS) behavior of biopolymer-modified cohesive soil exposed to natural field conditions. Two biopolymers, xanthan gum (G1) and guar gum (G2), at dosages of 0.5, 1, ...
Pseudodynamic Stability Analysis of Landfill Veneer Cover Systems with Clogged Drainage Layer
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The accumulated water within the drainage layer of a final cover system of municipal solid waste (MSW) landfills is the foremost reason for the failure of final covers. This study adopts a pseudodynamic (PD) method to ...
