Abstract Random field Monte Carlo (MC) reliability analysis is a robust stochastic method to
determine the probability of failure. This method, however, requires a large number of …

Although advances in piling equipment and technologies have extended the global use of
stabilizing piles (to stabilize slope or landslide), the design of stabilizing piles remains a …

In this study, the seismic stability of arch dam abutments is investigated within the framework
of the probabilistic method. A large concrete arch dam is considered with six wedges for …

To investigate the influence of spatial variability of hydraulic parameters on the flow in earth
dams, saturated-unsaturated seepage is numerically simulated combining Monte Carlo …

Due to inherent spatial variability, soil properties vary from one location to another even
within one soil layer. Such spatial variability of soils gives rise to scale-dependency in slope …

This research mainly addresses evaluating the seismic reliability and analyzing the random
dynamic response of high concrete-faced rockfill dam (CFRD) slopes suffering from the near …

Cohesion (c) and friction angle (ϕ) of rock are important parameters required for reliability
analysis of rock slope stability. There is correlation between c and ϕ which affects results of …

This paper presents a fuzzy set–based robust geotechnical design (RGD) approach for the
design of earth slopes in which uncertain soil parameters are represented as fuzzy sets. For …

This paper presents a probabilistic approach for seismic stability analysis of a slope at a
given site in a specified exposure time. For a probabilistic seismic stability analysis, the …

This paper presents a framework for optimization of site investigation program, within which
the robustness of the site investigation program and the investigation effort are optimized. A …
