1. Installation of cables for monitoring purposes in the ground by using Horizontal Directional Drilling
Uppsats för yrkesexamina på avancerad nivå, Lunds universitet/Teknisk geologi; Lunds universitet/Väg- och vattenbyggnad (CI)Sammanfattning : The median age for Swedish earth embankment dams is about 60 years. Due to its longevity, one of the major concerns is the internal erosion causing increased seepage through the dam, which ultimately may increases the risk for dam failure. To meet this challenge, there is a need for improved monitoring methods. LÄS MER
2. Internal Erosion and Dam Stability : Analysis of the internal erosion effects on stability of an embankment dam
Uppsats för yrkesexamina på avancerad nivå, Luleå tekniska universitet/GeoteknologiSammanfattning : Embankment dams encounter several problems in terms of dam safety. One of those problems is called internal erosion. This phenomenon is induced by the movement of fine particles within the dam due to seepage forces. If the dam is not able to self-heal, the eroded zones will increase which will eventually cause the dam to fail. LÄS MER
