Landslides are serious geohazards that occur under a variety of climatic conditions and can
cause many casualties and significant economic losses. Centrifuge modelling, as a …

Geotechnical structures such as levees, dykes, canals and tailing dams, when subjected to
extreme climatic conditions such as flooding and drawdown, are prone to failure on the …

This study examined the limitations of the dynamic cone penetrometer test (DCPT) for
predicting soil strength such as California bearing ratio (CBR) and proposed incorporating …

Earthen river embankments are typically in unsaturated conditions during their lifetime and
the degree of saturation within their bodies may vary significantly throughout the year, due to …

To study the instability mechanism of the slope of the widened highway roadbed during
rainfall, a rainfall simulation device was developed for geotechnical centrifugal model …

Mining coal, oil and other energy will form much slope engineering, such as open-pit mine
slope and oil depot slope. The groundwater seepage seriously affects the stability of these …

Elevation of the phreatic surface causes instability in earth structures. Therefore, drainage
systems are important in constructing an earth structure. Drain pipes are a drainage system …

Steel drainage pipes that can provide both drainage and reinforcement functions are
expected to give better performance in levee protection against flooding compared to the …

River floods rank among the most significant natural hazard in Europe, causing substantial
economic and human losses and are frequently due to severe damages endured by water …

抄録 土砂崩壊による労働災害を防ぐためには, 掘削形状のみならず地下水・湧水を始めとした水の
