Effect of anisotropy and destructuration on behavior of Haarajoki test embankment [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
This paper investigates the influence of anisotropy and destructuration on the behavior of Haarajoki test embankment, which was built by the Finnish National Road Administration as a noise barrier in 1997 on a soft clay deposit. Half of the embankment is

Establishing Long Term Seepage Behavior of Zoned Embankment Dams with Three-Dimensional Seepage Analysis [Elektronisk resurs]

open access: yes, 2009
Since seepage-related problems are the main cause of morethan fourty percent of dam failures, seepage analysis is oneof the most important stages in the design process of anembankment dam.

Risk Analysis and Control Measures for Slurry Shield Tunneling Diagonally under an Urban River Embankment

open access: yesAdvances in Civil Engineering, 2020
The construction of urban cross-river tunnels usually requires passing under river embankments, which inevitably disturbs the embankment substratum and causes ground deformation. Previous engineering cases have shown that embankment settlement is greater

Assessing the Risk Probability of the Embankment Seismic Damage Using Monte Carlo Method

open access: yesAdvances in Civil Engineering, 2020
There are few systematic studies on the risk probability assessment, although embankment seismic damages are extremely serious. Meanwhile, retaining walls and other retaining structures play positive roles in improving the embankment seismic performance,

Embankment seismic fragility assessment: A case study on Xi'an-Baoji expressway (China).

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2021
Although embankment seismic damages are very complex, there has been little seismic fragility research yet. Researches on seismic fragility of bridges, dams and reinforced concrete (RC) structures have achieved fruitful results, which can provide ...

Evaluation of an Improved Technique for Geosynthetic-Reinforced and Pile-Supported Embankment

open access: yesAdvances in Materials Science and Engineering, 2015
With a large number of applications of conventional technique for geosynthetic-reinforced and pile-supported (GRPS) embankment (called CT embankment), many deficiencies have been exposed.

Nonlinear Dynamic Analysis Adopting Effective Stress Approach of an Embankment Involving Liquefaction Potential [PDF]

open access: yesE3S Web of Conferences, 2020
Stability of an embankment under earthquake loads is challenging in the process of analysis and design. Some embankment design consist of saturated granular material that is potential to liquefaction.
