Effects of tailings viscosity on liquefaction triggering analyses
(University of Alberta, 2021)
Conference report
Restricted access - publisher's policyRecent analyses have suggested that creep or rate effects may be present in some tailings and can play a role in triggering liquefaction failure. However, the role of creep in liquefaction triggering analysis of tailing ... -
Evaluación del riesgo volcánico en Tenerife, Islas Canarias. Resultados del análisis de susceptibilidad
(UNEX, 2003)
Conference report
Open AccessLos mapas de riesgo han demostrado ser una herramienta útil para poder pronosticar y disminuir el tiempo de respuesta respecto a los procesos naturales catastróficos. Las erupciones volcánicas representan para la sociedad ... -
Ground movement control in the construction of a new metro line in Barcelona
(CRC Press, 2005)
Conference report
Restricted access - publisher's policyGround movement control is of paramount importance in the construction of a new Metro line in Barcelona given the large diameter of the excavation and the need to cross heavily built areas. A variety of construction ... -
Applying Bayesian updating to CPT data analysis
(CRC Press, 2018)
Conference lecture
Open AccessEvaluation of geotechnical parameters on a project site is a necessary step in geotechnical engineering. However, due to the inherent variability of soil properties and the lack of data, many unavoidable uncertainties arise ... -
Sample quality examination on silty soils
(Institution of Civil Engineers (ICE), 2015)
Conference lecture
Restricted access - publisher's policyMediterranean deltaic environments typically produce soil deposits in which silts dominate, granular intercalations are frequent and the mineralogy includes an important carbonate fraction. One question still open is what ... -
Dynamics of slow and fast landslides
(2020)
Conference report
Open AccessThe paper discusses some factors that control the shearing soil behaviour and the dynamics of landslides: strain-, strain rate-, and temperature effects. The strain rate effect on residual strength is discussed through ... -
Marco teórico para la modelación numérica de arcillas blandas estructuradas
(Sociedad Mexicana de Ingeniería Geotécnica (SMIG), 2021)
Conference report
Restricted access - publisher's policyA partir de la combinación de teorías existentes, se presenta un marco teórico para la modelación numérica de arcillas blandas estructuradas. La formulación toma en cuenta, de forma natural, fenómenos dependientes del ... -
Relación entre parámetros de una tuneladora EPB y los movimientos del terreno
(2009)
Conference report
Restricted access - publisher's policyEn el presente artículo, se presentan análisis tridimensionales de elementos finitos para examinar los efectos que las distintas presiones que se .aplican durante la excavación de un túnel con EPB (presión de frente, presión ... -
Effect of climate change on slope stability: a numerical analysis using predictions of the Catalan Pyrenees
(International Society for Soil Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering (ISSMGE), 2021)
Conference report
Open AccessThe effect of climate change on soil loss processes in mountainous areas represents a current and critical problem. In this work, this issue is addressed through the analysis of the stability of different types of slopes ... -
Effect of land cover and climate changes on rainfall-induced landslides: regional-scale modelling in the Val d’Aran (Pyrenees, Spain)
(International Society for Soil Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering (ISSMGE), 2021)
Conference report
Open AccessThe analysis of the impacts of future environmental changes on rainfall-induced landslides is of great importance. Recent studies have shown that these changes will affect the frequency and magnitude of shallow slides and ... -
Analysis of massive sulphate attack to cement-treated compacted soils
(E3S Web of Conferences, 2020)
Conference report
Open AccessThe paper describes the heave experienced by two embankments providing access to a bridge located in a high-speed railway line. The compacted soil, a mixture of a low plasticity clay, sand and gravel, had a significant ... -
Incorporating surface roughness into DEM models of crushable soils
(ITASCA Consulting Group, 2020)
Conference report
Restricted access - publisher's policyOne obvious characteristic of granular grains is that their surface is not smooth, especially when observed at smaller scales. Some advanced experiment imaging methods such as optical interferometry, scanning electron ...
