Improving Safety Performance of Construction Workers through Learning from Incidents

open access: yesInternational Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health, 2023
Learning from incidents (LFI) is a process to seek, analyse, and disseminate the severity and causes of incidents, and take corrective measures to prevent the recurrence of similar events.

Assessing Submarine Slope Stability through Deterministic and Probabilistic Approaches: A Case Study on the West-Central Scotia Slope

open access: yesGeosciences, 2018
A simplified geostatistical approach was adopted to assess the effect of spatial variability of soil properties on slope stability analysis in order to understand continental margin geologic processes and potential geohazards for an area of the central ...

Paraglacial Rock Slope Stability Under Changing Environmental Conditions, Safuna Lakes, Cordillera Blanca Peru

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2021
Landslides or landslide-induced impact waves in high mountain lakes represent a high hazard for society, calling for realistic assessments of rock slope stability responsible for the process chain initiation.

Discussion on the Safety Factors of Slopes Recommended for Small Dams

open access: yesActa Universitatis Agriculturae et Silviculturae Mendelianae Brunensis, 2017
The design and assessment of the slope stability of small embankment dams is usually not carried out using slope stability calculations but rather by the comparison of proposed or existing dam slopes with those recommended by technical standards or ...

Performance Evaluation of Hybrid WOA-SVR and HHO-SVR Models with Various Kernels to Predict Factor of Safety for Circular Failure Slope

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2021
To detect areas with the potential for landslides, slopes are routinely subjected to stability analyses. To this end, there is a need to adopt appropriate mitigation techniques. In general, the stability of slopes with circular failure mode is defined as

A study of stability analysis of pyroclastic covers based on electrical resistivity measurements

open access: yes, 2012
Usually, the degree of stability of a slope is quantified by the Factor of Safety whose values depend on physical and mechanical soil properties analyzed on samples of much reduced sizes or referring to very small soil volumes around porous probes.

Evaluation of safety factors in discontinuous rock [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Rock Mechanics and Mining Sciences & Geomechanics Abstracts, 1996
Safety factors for kinematically admissible failure mechanisms in jointed rock masses have been defined with linear and nonlinear failure criteria for rock discontinuities. Data required to compute these safety factors are obtained by means of two finite element analyses of the effects of selfweight and external (structural) loading,

Exploratory study into a safety format for composite columns exposed to fire [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Current performance based structural fire engineering approaches evaluate structural behaviour under prescribed fire scenarios. The mechanical properties of the materials, the load conditions and geometric parameters are all however fraught with ...
