Fractal analysis of cracking in a clayey soil under freeze–thaw cycles
Under extreme climate conditions, clayey soils experience not only seasonal drying and
wetting but also frequent freezing and thawing. Cracking would also occur in clayey soils …

Static and seismic stability assessment of 3D slopes with cracks
The majority of extant analyses on slope stability assumed a two-dimensional plane-strain
condition and/or an intact slope. However, slope failures typically exhibit three-dimensional …
