<p>This paper deals with probabilistic slope stability analyses of earth-fill dams. Hydraulic conductivity, unit weight, cohesion and internal friction angle of the soil are considered as random variables. Seepage flow through the dam body is solved by Monte ...

<p>Near-fault ground motions often possess distinct characteristics, which can have strong influence on structural response. These include the rupture directivity effect in the fault-normal direction and the fling step in the fault-parallel direction. A site ...
