On the 4th and 5th of March 2005, about 100 rainfall-induced landslides occurred along volcanic slopes of Camaldoli Hill in Naples, Italy. These started as soil slips in the upper substratum of incoherent and welded volcaniclastic deposits, then evolved ...

In the realm of urban geotechnical infrastructure development, accurate estimation of the California Bearing Ratio (CBR), a key indicator of the strength of unbound granular material and subgrade soil, is paramount for pavement design. Traditional labora...

The tunnel boring method (TBM) is a widely used and effective tunneling technology in various rock mass quality circumstances. A ?faulted rock mass? can range from a highly fractured rock mass to a sheared weak rock mass, making the ground conditions cha...

With the evolution of modern cosmopolitan cities, subterranean spaces have developed in dense urban environments. Hence, new metro tunnels often intersect with those in operation. The top-priority task of designers is to evaluate the effect of new constr...

In observational method projects in geotechnical engineering, the final geotechnical design is decided upon during actual construction, depending on the observed behavior of the ground. Hence, engineers must be prepared to make crucial decisions promptly...

Aiming at the problem that the non-probabilistic reliability analysis method of slope engineering, which is based on an interval model, cannot consider the cross-correlation of geotechnical parameters, a non-probabilistic reliability analysis method of s...

This paper presents the first laboratory study of four materials (three lateritic soils and one sandy soil) mainly used in road construction in French Guiana. The analysis of macroscopic behaviour by physical tests, following French standards, made it po...

Shear-wave seismic reflection velocity-versus-depth models can complement our understanding of seepage pore pressure variations beneath earthen levees at locations between geotechnical sites. The seasonal variations of water level in the Mississippi Rive...
