Near Surface Geophysics, Volume 23, Issue 2, Page 105-120, April 2025.Abstract Degradation within a manmade earth embankment structure is often unobservable from the surface. In order to evaluate the structural integrity of earth embankment levees and dams and identify subsurface zones of weakness that may result in the future failures of such structures, various geophysical methods have been proposed as effective ...

Study of Stress and Deformation of High Concrete-Face Rockfill Dam on Steep Slope in Narrow Valley
Renmin Zhujiang, 2022 At present,in the finite-element stress and strain calculation of rockfill dams,fixed support is mostly adopted to simulate the connection between the rockfill at the bank slope and the slope.As for a concrete-face rockfill dam (CFRD) in the steep slope ...

Computer-Aided Civil and Infrastructure Engineering, Volume 40, Issue 10, Page 1405-1417, 18 April 2025.Abstract Ensuring the safety of water networks is a research hotspot in the current water conservancy industry, and dams are an important part. However, over time, the dam is prone to varying degrees of aging and disease, most of which are structural cracks.

Influence of particle crushing on the critical state line of rockfill materials [PDF]
E3S Web of ConferencesThe mechanical behaviour of rockfill materials is strongly affected by particle breakage, which causes a continuous variation of the grain size distribution (GSD) until a stationary condition.

Engineering Reports, Volume 7, Issue 3, March 2025.This study proposed a method of modeling and analysis of dam slope plane deformation based on multi‐points monitoring data. Firstly, based on the sort out and analyze of actual monitoring data of the Hongjiadu CFRD, the deformation property of the dam has been mastered.
