Abstract The analysis of seepage through earthen levees is fundamental to investigate the levee safety condition, since that the seepage phenomenon can often lead to piping causing the collapse of the levee (Saghaee et al., 2012). This work proposes

Context: Forensic geotechnical engineering aims to determine the most likely causes leading to geotechnical failures. Standard practice tests a set of credible hypotheses against the collected evidence using backward analysis and complex but determin

Abstract A novel procedure for estimation of the vulnerability to seepage inducing piping processes in earthen levees affected by animal burrows is presented. The proposed methodology combines an available procedure of seepage vulnerability assessmen

To conduct landslide risk assessment and assess the consequences of dam and levee failures, it is important to understand the overall failure evolution process that ranges from small-strain initiation to large-strain post-failure runout. To achieve t

Along the Lower Tisza River (Hungary) the water level of the floods reached new record stages in 1998 and 2006, resulting in 80 cm increase in the peak flood level since the “great flood of 1970”. Due to the gradual weakening of the levee-system

Hindcasting of past levee failures enhances insights in the performance and vulnerability of levees. The scarcity of field evidence makes identifying the cause(s) of failure difficult. Under these circumstances, multiple scenarios and model choices a

Heavy rains brought about by Typhoon Hagibis (Typhoon No. 19) in October 2019 caused great damage to the Kanto and Tohoku regions of Japan. In the Tohoku region, the rainfall was particularly high in the coastal areas of Fukushima, Miyagi, and Iwate

In this paper, embankment or levee failure due to the interaction between a cavity within an embankment body and high water level was simulated in a centrifuge test and monitored by electrical resistivity tomography (ERT) survey technique. As the cen
