Streszczenie:
The Bagdad Mine, an open pit mine located in northwestern Arizona, has experienced a slope failure related to a weak weathered tuff bed. The unit has been altered to a clay-like material in areas of the pit. Overburden pressures have caused the tuff to be squeezed out, and blocks of the overlying basalt unit have toppled forward. The failure has been remedied by reducing the pit slope to about 20°, but this solution is not desirable. Modelling of the slope is done using a general purpose finite element method program. The Drucker-Prager theory is used to model the tuff bed, while the other uni

The performance and safety assessment of geo-structures is strongly affected by uncertainty; that is, both due a subjective lack of knowledge as well as objectively present and irreducible unknowns. Due to uncertainty in the non-linear variation of the matric suction induced effective stress as a function of the transient soil-atmosphere boundary conditions, the unsaturated state of the subsoil is generally not accounted for in a deterministic slope stability assessment.

Failure mechanisms in large scale open pit slopes are more complex than could be considered through conventional slope design methods. Pit slope behaviour must be predicted accurately, because for very deep open pits, a small change of slope angle can have serious technical and economic consequences. Failure of hard rock slopes often involves both failure along naturally existing weakness planes and failure of intact rock. Without an advanced understanding of combined rock slope failure mechanisms, the validity of commonly applied methods of large scale slope analysis is questionable. The prob

The geomorphological behaviour of steep jointed rock slopes has been studied using distinct element computer models. In order to model steep slopes effectively, methodologies need to be combined from the studies of environmental modellers, geomorphologists and engineers. The distinct element method is ideal for the study of the development of jointed rock masses, where the failure is controlled by the nature of the discontinuities.

Streszczenie:
Discrete pile rows are widely used for improving the stability of potentially unstable slopes, where columns of reinforced concrete are constructed in the ground to reinforce it and inhibit instability. The method becomes more cost effective with wider pile spacings, but simultaneously there is also increasing risk that the soil will flow through the gap between adjacent piles, rather than arching across it. The impact of pile spacing along the row, which is likely to have a significant effect on stability, is not clearly understood from a current design perspective. In this study the effects

Streszczenie:
The aim of this thesis has been to model small rockfalls in order to better understand where, when and why they occur. High-resolution monitoring of rock slopes has revealed clustering of rockfalls through space and time, suggesting interactions, whereby one detachment from a rock slope influences the nature of those that follow. This observation contrasts with the more conventional idea of rockfalls as time-independent, discrete events that occur in response to an identifiable trigger. As the processes that give rise to observations of rockfall clustering are not well established, this thesis

Afin de modéliser le comportement des géométariaux sous des charges complexes, plusieurs études et travaux expérimentaux ont été réalisées afin d’établir des modèles constitutifs relatifs. Une caractéristique importante des matériaux granulaires est que la relation entre la contrainte et la déformation et ce même dans le domaine élastique n’est pas linéaire, contrairement aux réponses du métal. Il a également été constaté que la réponse contrainte-déformation des matériaux granulaires montre les caractéristiques de l’anisotropie induite, ainsi que les non-linéarités. En outre, l’anisotropie in

Streszczenie:
Many geotechnical engineering structures, including embankments, slopes and foundations involve unsaturated soils, either because they are constructed of compacted fills which are unsaturated after placement or because they include a zone of unsaturated natural soils above the water table. Moreover, both compacted fills and natural soils are inherently heterogeneous, which leads to an important but complex class of problems whose analysis involves consideration of heterogeneous unsaturated soil. Both partial saturation and material heterogeneity significantly influence the overall behaviour of
