Energy dissipation down a stepped spillway with nonuniform step heights [PDF]
, 2011 Although most stepped spillway-design guidelines were developed for uniform step heights, a nonuniform stepped design might be a practical alternative in some cases.

Human Settlement Pressure Drives Slow‐Moving Landslide Exposure
Earth's Future, Volume 12, Issue 9, September 2024.Abstract A rapidly growing population across mountain regions is pressuring expansion onto steeper slopes, leading to increased exposure of people and their assets to slow‐moving landslides. These moving hillslopes can inflict damage to buildings and infrastructure, accelerate with urban alterations, and catastrophically fail with climatic and weather ...

International Consensus Statement on Allergy and Rhinology: Sinonasal Tumors
International Forum of Allergy &Rhinology, Volume 14, Issue 2, Page 149-608, February 2024.Abstract Background Sinonasal neoplasms, whether benign and malignant, pose a significant challenge to clinicians and represent a model area for multidisciplinary collaboration in order to optimize patient care. The International Consensus Statement on Allergy and Rhinology: Sinonasal Tumors (ICSNT) aims to summarize the best available evidence and ...

Integrated Environmental Assessment and Management, Volume 20, Issue 1, Page 148-158, January 2024.Abstract The Fundão mine tailings dam rupture of 2015, in the Rio Doce basin, Brazil, resulted in the deposition of tailings downstream of the dam. It has yet to be determined if metals associated with the tailings have contributed toxicity to organisms, burying a time bomb that could be ticking.

Utilisation of Stepped Channels and Study of Stepped Channel Flows in Australia [PDF]
, 1998 Stepped channels and spillways are used since more than 3,000 years. Recently, new construction materials (e.g. RCC, gabions) have increased the interest for stepped chutes.

Experimental Investigations of Air Entrainment in Transition and Skimming Flows down a Stepped Chute: Application to Embankment Overflow Stepped Spillways [PDF]
, 2001 Stepped spillways have been used for about 3,500 years. The last few decades have seen the development of new construction materials, design techniques and applications : e.g., embankment overtopping protection systems.

Seismic analysis of masonry gravity dams using the discrete element method: Implementation and application [PDF]
, 2015 Much research in recent years has focused on the seismic analysis of concrete and earthfill dams, and few works have addressed the case of masonry dams. The structural behaviour of masonry dams is controlled essentially by its discontinuous nature, which

The use of FLAC for the seismic evaluation of a concrete gravity dam including dam-water-sediments-foundation rock interaction [PDF]
, 2017 Seismic safety of 65m-high Licodia Eubea gravity dam located in Southeastern Sicily (Italy) has been assessed by means of advanced dynamic analyses of the tallest cross-section of the dam. The analyses were performed with two-dimensional, plane strain,
