Reliability based seismic slope failure assessment of a high concrete face rockfill dam close to an active fault zone

Soils and Foundations
This study assesses the earthquake-induced failure risks of the upstream and downstream slopes of a concrete face dam (CFRD), which is under the influence of a nearby active fault, using the reliability-based analysis method.

Stress–dilatancy relationship for railway ballast

Studia Geotechnica et Mechanica, 2018
Knowledge of the mechanical behaviour of ballast is very important for designing a railway track, especially for high-speed lines. The monotonic drained triaxial tests of scaled and fouled ballast presented in literature were analysed using the ...

Experimental bearing capacity of eccentrically loaded foundation near a slope

Studia Geotechnica et Mechanica, 2019
Based on the response of small-scale model square footing, the present paper shows the results of an experimental bearing capacity of eccentrically loaded square footing, near a slope sand bed. To reach this aim, a steel model square footing of (150 mm ×

Axisymmetric Torsion of an Elastic Layer Sandwiched between Two Elastic Half-Spaces with Two Interfaced Cracks

Studia Geotechnica et Mechanica, 2019
The present article examines the problem related to the axisymmetric torsion of an elastic layer by a circular rigid disc at the symmetry plane. The layer is sandwiched between two similar elastic half-spaces with two penny-shaped cracks symmetrically ...
