Estimation of VS30 using shallow depth time-averaged shear wave velocity of Rawalpindi–Islamabad, Pakistan

open access: yesGeomatics, Natural Hazards & Risk, 2023
The time-averaged shear wave velocity of top 30 m (VS30) is the most commonly used parameter to classify a site and evaluate its amplification characteristics for the seismic design.

Back analysis of inter-ramp slope failure in Teghout copper mine [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mining and Geo-Engineering, 2018
Slope stability is one of the most important issues in open pit mining design. The main purpose of any open pit mine design is to propose an optimal excavation configuration, considering safety, ore recovery and financial return.
