<p>The main concern when designing or analysing embankment dams is usually their stability. However, assessing their deformation is also important. This paper describes the recent use of advanced numerical analysis to predict the latter. Examples of its use ...

<p>The development of numerical analysis and its application to geotechnical problems over the past 20 years have provided geotechnical engineers with an extremely powerful analysis tool. However, the use of such analysis is still not widespread, and when ...
