This paper investigates the time-dependent behaviour of Murro test embankment in Finland.
The embankment was built in 1993 on a soft natural clay deposit, which exhibits large strain …

This study evaluated the behaviour of a concrete face rockfill dam (CFRD) built on river
gravel foundation on the basis of in-situ measurement records and numerical analysis. The …

In this article, a practical analytical method for prediction of the postconstruction settlement of
high embankments is proposed through the further simplification of the one-dimensional …

This study simulates two dimensional sediment transport, as a result of overtopping earthfill
dam break, in urban areas. The model can consider breaching, removal of sediment from …

The construction of high embankments in regions where the soils are predominantly soft and
consist of marine clay deposits with low shear strength poses special challenges. Due to the …

When measuring the surface subsidence of unstable areas such as railroad beds and large
construction fields, it is not practical to always find stable positions to install measurement …

The undrained shear strength (su) of cohesive soils is a crucial parameter for many
geotechnical engineering applications. Due to the complexities and uncertainties associated …

This article presents a case history of an embankment constructed on the soft Ariake clay on
the bank of Rokkaku River, Saga, Japan. The staged method was used in the construction of …

A review is presented on three core activities of geotechnical engineering: the prediction, the
monitoring and the evaluation of performance of geotechnical structures. Four types of …

In the application of displacement-relay videometrics for surface subsidence surveillance,
double-sided telecentric lenses are especially suited as their constant perspective and large …
