Abstract 2D numerical modeling is used for the dump slope stability assessment. The 2D
numerical modeling stability assessment results are not realistic for the actual geometry of …

Many landslides occurred in the 11 Turkish provinces affected by the earthquakes centered
in Kahramanmaraş in February 2023, and many people lost their lives due to those …

Substantial non-persistent fractures remarkably influence the stability analysis of rock
slopes. However, their full consideration and three-dimensional (3D) analysis is often …

Floods often cause changes in the hydro-geomorphology of riverbeds and banks. These
changes need to be closely monitored to find a balance and exchange between lateral and …

An expeditious and precise slope stability assessment approach is required to mitigate the
personnel and economic losses due slope failure disaster. This study successfully …

Rock quality designation (RQD) is a standard technique in mining and geotechnical
investigation for quantifying the quality and degree of jointing of the rock mass. However, the …

Failure events in dams can be associated with processes in the dam body and in the
foundation of the structure. If they are properly identified in early stages, corrective actions …

The present study aims to assess the utility of construction and demolition (C&D) waste,
specifically recycled concrete aggregates (RCA) and recycled brick aggregates (RBA), as fill …

Dump failure is one of the most catastrophic hazards in the opencast mining industry and
involves sudden and violent failures. Therefore, susceptible region identification is essential …
