BEHAVIOR OF MATERIALS FOR EARTH AND ROCKfiLL DAMS: PERSPECTIVE FROM UNSATURATED SOIL MECHANICS
(2009)
The basis of the design of earth and rockfill dams is focused on ensuring the stability of the structure under a set of conditions expected to occur during its life. Combined mechanical and hydraulic conditions must be considered since pore pressures develop ...
