Slope stability analysis allows engineers to pinpoint risky areas, study trigger mechanisms
for slope failures, and design slopes with optimal safety and reliability. Before the …

Embankments are widespread throughout the world and their safety under seismic
conditions is a primary concern in the geotechnical engineering community since the failure …

A new attenuation model is proposed to estimate the cumulative absolute velocity (CAV) of
strong ground motions based on an updated earthquake database of the earthquakes …

Abstract The Tiga Dam, a primary hydraulic structure in northern Nigeria, is subjected to
intense hydrological stress during the rainy season, posing potential risks to its structural …

The objective of this research is to introduce a novel framework to quantify the risk of the
reservoir system outside the design envelope, taking into account the risks related to flood …

In the present study, the estimation of vertical settlement of earthen dams caused by
earthquakes has been investigated using an artificial neural network model and wavelet …

This study describes and characterizes the damage behaviors of earth dams during the
February 6, 2023, earthquakes in Kahramanmaraş, Turkey. The first major earthquake …

An important characteristic of some clays is their abundance of fissures. In the case study
reported here, to investigate how the fissure inclination angle affects the deformation and …

On 6 February 2023, two major earthquakes struck Türkiye, with their epicenters in the
Pazarcık (M7. 7; focal depth: 8.6 km) and Elbistan (M7. 6; focal depth: 7 km) districts of …

Many existing small and medium-sized homogenous earthen dams (SMHEDs), which were
constructed worldwide before the establishment of seismic design codes, are prone to fail …
