Deformation and Stability Analysis of Clay‐Geomembrane Lined Landfill Slope: A Numerical Approach

Advances in Materials Science and Engineering, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
The study emphasizes landfill slope deformation and stability, pointing out that excessive instability can pose environmental and health risks. Existing knowledge lacks sufficient consideration for the complex time‐dependent behavioral and compositional changes while modeling numerical simulations.

Improvement in CBR value of soil reinforced with nonwoven geotextile sheets

International Journal of Geo-Engineering, 2021
Geosynthetics are human made material used to reinforce soils to improve the bearing capacity and permeability of the soil, reducing soil settlement. Geosynthetics application plays a vital role in the highways constructions with no additive layers, such

Influence of Mine Dewatering‐Effluent Cycling on Arsenic Loading in a Gold Mine Tailings Containment Area

Water Resources Research, Volume 61, Issue 10, October 2025.
Abstract The Giant Mine (1948–1999) generated 16 Mt of Au‐bearing mill tailings (2800 mg kg−1) originating from a mixture of flotation tailings (84.8 wt%), calcine residues (14.4 wt.%), and arsenic trioxide roaster waste (0.8 wt.%). A water treatment system for high As mine dewatering effluent has operated since the end of mine operations, with the ...

Numerical Investigation of Evaporation‐Driven Salt Uptake in Store‐Release Soil Covers Over Hypersaline Tailings

Water Resources Research, Volume 61, Issue 9, September 2025.
Abstract Placing moisture store‐release (SR) soil covers over hypersaline tailings has been a promising way to rehabilitate closed tailings storage facilities. However, the performance of SR covers in limiting evaporation‐driven salt migration remains less investigated. A one‐dimensional numerical model that couples the transport of liquid water, water

Comparative 2D Finite Element Analysis of Soil–Cement Block and Column Reinforcements for Deep Excavation Support

Engineering Reports, Volume 7, Issue 7, July 2025.
This study evaluates the effectiveness of soil–cement reinforcement configurations in deep excavations using 2D FEM analysis. It investigates two different approaches to represent soil–cement reinforcement and compares them, showing that blocks reduce lateral deflections by 60%–64% and bending moments by 22% compared to columns.
