The efficiency and survivability of any structural component are determined not only by the
quality of the building materials used but also by the geological conditions underneath the …

Non-linear analysis of soil structure interaction problem is still an active field of research due
to development of useful interface element between the soil–soil and soil–structure. In this …

The stability of an inner dump slope was investigated under the effect of coal pillar support
considering the development position of dumping. Based on the instability mechanism and …

Numerical and computational analyses surrounding the behavior of the bearing capacity of
soils near or adjacent to slopes have been of great importance in earthwork constructions …

Polymer is a new repair and reinforcement material for earth-rock dams developed in recent
years. Models are developed where spatial variability is incorporated into the analytical …

Soil stabilization using geopolymers is a new technique for improvement of weak cohesive
soils. Evaluating behavior of improved soils requires an initial estimation of strength …

The interface friction mechanics of reinforcement material with filler is an essential issue for
the engineering design of reinforced soil structure. The interface friction mechanics is closely …

Due to the shortage of urban land, new buildings are constructed adjacent to old buildings.
In this regard, there is limited information about the behaviour of the shallow foundations …

Earthquake-induced deformations are a major threat to the stability of earth dams. Therefore,
it is necessary to pay special attention to this issue in the design and construction of earth …

This study evaluates the influence of inclined ground on the ultimate load-carrying capacity
of rigid concrete pavements laying on unreinforced and reinforced soil embankments. The …
