Interactive Evaluation of the Reliability of Engineered Slopes Utilising Multi-source Monitoring Information

Important engineered slopes are often heavily instrumented and their performance routinely monitored through these instruments. The evaluation of the safety of the slopes based on the monitored information is however a challenge. A systematic method is presented in this paper for evaluating the slope safety by combining multi-source monitoring...

Flow slide failure of excavated subaqueous slopes

Unexpected failure of subaqueous excavated slopes in the form of flow slides is considered in this graduate study. Excavated slopes are not the same as slopes constructed by means of hydraulic fill. Several recent flow slide failures in sand borrow pits, together with qualms in engineering practice about not knowing exactly what fundamental...
