<p>This article presents new results from field tests and numerical simulations regarding the performance of fully grouted piezometers under transient flow conditions. The field observations show that using low-permeability grout for piezometer installation ...

<p>Landslide forecasting and early warning has a long tradition in landslide research and is primarily carried out based on empirical and statistical approaches, e.g., landslide triggering rainfall thresholds. In the last decade, flood forecasting started ...

<p>The 10.6 km long Sabzkuh water conveyance tunnel is currently under construction in the High Zagros structural zone, located in western <br />Iran, through conventional (in section T1) and mechanized (in section T2) methods. The section T1 of the ...

<p>In Kuala Lumpur to date, there is little evidence to support landslide causes and very little research into the nature of landslide vulnerability. This article takes an interdisciplinary method and empirical approaches to examine, in addition where ...

<p>Solid waste is the unacceptable or useless solid materials generated from mutually residential, mechanical &amp; commercial activities in a supposing area. Managing the SW deals with the maintenance of healthy environment to remove any waste as early ...

<p>The aim of this Study is to identify the most common types of cracks and defects which occur in Izki road and suggest suitable option for maintenance. The objectives are to identify different types of cracks &amp; defects, to find out the different ...

<p>The presence of dumping grounds in highly urbanized environment directly results into health hazards for the people residing in the surrounding areas. In the past years, these open dumps have become a threat to the local hydrogeology. Groundwater contamination ...

<p>Targeted at a slope in Nanhuan Road, Fuxin, Northeast China, this paper explores the cause and failure mechanism of landslide through site survey, surface displacement monitoring, inclinometer measurement, and limit equilibrium analysis. It is concluded ...

<p>A fundamental goal of mineralogy and petrology is the deep understanding of mineral phase relation-ships and the consequent spatial and temporal patterns of mineral coexistence in rocks, ore bodies, sediments, meteorites, and other natural polycrystalline ...

<p>The shear strength of heavily overconsolidated, stiff-to-hard plastic clays is crucial to their stability and also influential on the ground movements they develop in many geotechnical engineering applications. This paper considers the shear strength anisotropy ...
