Internal erosion refers to the seepage-induced fine particle migration phenomenon in soil. Deep alluviums in valleys usually contain cohesionless gap-graded sandy gravels with poor internal stability. The construction of embankment dams on such alluviums...

The instability of a partially embedded pipeline under ocean currents involves complex fluid?pipe?soil interactions, which may induce two typical instability modes; i.e., the lateral instability of the pipe and the tunnel erosion of the underlying soil. ...

Silty sand is a kind of typical marine sediment that is widely distributed in the offshore areas of East China. It has been found that under continuous actions of wave pressure, a mass of fine particles will gradually rise up to the surface of silty sand...

Climate change with extreme hydrological conditions, such as drought and flood, bring new challenges to seepage behavior and the stability of earthfill dams. Taking a drought-stricken earthfill dam of China as an example, the influence of drought-flood c...
