To investigate the seismic response of layered rock sites, a multidomain analysis method
was proposed. Three finite element models with infinite element boundaries for layered sites …

In light of growing concerns over sustainability, particularly in the wake of environmental
disasters like the Aznalcollar dam break, the Spanish authorities have heightened their …

The current paper presents typical behaviour of fine-and coarse-grained soils under low-and
high-cyclic loading applied under drained or undrained conditions. The influences of various …

Deformation analyses of tailings dams under dynamic conditions require using earthquake
records as input loading. Moreover, these records must represent the local seismicity …

La práctica actual en el diseño de presas de relaves en Chile contempla un análisis de
estabilidad compuesto por cuatro etapas, de acuerdo con el Decreto Supremo 248 del …

El estado de la práctica para evaluar el potencial de licuación dinámica de una columna de
suelo implica el uso de métodos simplificados para determinar y comparar la relación de …

This work explores the potential of deformation assessment in assessing the performance of
a tailings storage facility (TSF) during construction and operation. The studied TSF has a …

The design of tailings dams in Chile and other seismically active regions of the World
requires the use of both pseudo-static and dynamic numerical analyses to verify the physical …

The design of tailings dams in Chile is defined by Sernageomin's DS248 and Decree-50,
both of which require pseudo-static and dynamic analyses to verify the seismic stability of …

Current practice in the design of tailings dams in Chile considers a stability analysis
composed of four stages, according to Supreme Decree 248. One of these stages requires …
