Accés obertLa rotura de la balsa de estériles mineros del complejo de Aznalcóllar acaecida el 25 de abril de 1998 fue una catástrofe sin precedentes. Millones de metros cúbicos de un fluido complejo inundaron los cauces y riberas de ... -
Failure mechanisms in brittle soils: a dam failure revisited with the material point method
(2011)
Text en actes de congrés
Accés restringit per política de l'editorialThe material Point Method (MPM) combines features of Finite Element and Discrete Particle methods. It is well suited to analyze geotechnical problems which involve large displacements and dynamic response. An explicit ... -
Progressive failure of Aznalcóllar dam using the Material Point Method
(2011-01)
Article
Accés restringit per política de l'editorialThe material point method, which combines features of finite-element and particle discretisation methods, has been extended to solve coupled flow-deformation problems in granular media. The method is applied to simulate ... -
