Unusual rainfall is the primary cause of the failure of the tailing dams, and overtopping is the
most representative model of the tailing dam failure. The upstream tailing dam was selected …

Dam breach can trigger severe flood disasters, threatening life and property safety, and
having long-term impacts on the environment, society, and the economy. Dam breach floods …

Overtopping dam break is a frequent accident in tailings reservoirs. However, little attention
has been paid to the study of overtopping hydraulic erosion damage characteristics of …

The gate valves described in the article are used to handle the water flow between the
pressure chamber and the other operating parts of the water dam. The opening and closing …

A series of physical tests were carried out using three different particle sizes to investigate
the influence of tailings size on the failure process of a tailings dam subjected to …

A tailings dam failure can lead to disastrous impacts on people's livelihood and the
surrounding ecological environment. Due to interactions among water, tailings and ground …

In the storage process, the tailings particle size distribution varies greatly in different regions
of the tailings reservoir, which significantly affects the consolidation efficiency of tailings and …

Tailings ponds are a major hazard, and are ranked 18th in the risk assessment of world
accident hazards. The saturation line height is one of the most important factors that affects …

To characterise the relationships among the hazards associated with tailings storage facility
(TSF) dam failure, interpretive structural modelling (ISM) is used to hierarchise, structuralise …

This study discusses the importance of phreatic surface in the stability of slopes. It describes
the development of phreatic layer based on Dupuit and Forcheimmer assumptions in the …
