The safety and performance of embankment dams after impounding water are highly related
to the characteristics of the selected dam material. Impermeability is achieved by using clay …

As metro lines continue to expand rapidly in urban areas, the excavation of twin tunnels in
shallow depths using shield tunnelling methods has become widespread. By analysing field …

Landslide disasters pose significant threats to human life and infrastructure. The instability of
a bedding landslide with locked segments results from sudden brittle failure of the locked …

In this paper, Isogeometric analysis (IGA) is effectively integrated with machine learning (ML)
to investigate the bearing capacity of strip footings in layered soil profiles, with a focus on a …

Abstract Characterization of vegetation effect on soil response is essential for
comprehending site-specific hydrological processes. Traditional research often relies on …

Quantifying uncertainty is crucial for enhancing the reliability of geotechnical engineering
designs and reducing potential risks. Bayesian inference is commonly used for this purpose …

Implementation of the state‐of‐the‐art understanding of the mechanics of unsaturated soils
into geotechnical engineering practice is partly limited due to the lack of quick, reliable, and …

Settlement monitoring and prediction are among the most concerning problems for an
immersed tunnel. However, settlement monitoring usually relies on manual surveys with low …

Evaluation of the bearing capacity of bedrock is a long-lasting challenge to geotechnical
engineering. However, identifying the rock layer distribution using boreholes is usually time …
