New empirical failure criterion for shale
A new failure criterion was presented to predict the ultimate strength of shale under the triaxial and polyaxial state of stress. A database containing 93 datasets was obtained from the results of the uniaxial, triaxial, polyaxial compressive tests, an indirect tensile test was collected from reliable references, and this test was carried out on the shale samples taken from the southwestern oil...
متن کاملEmpirical consequences of symmetries
There is something of a tension between two aspects of symmetry in physics. On the one hand, there is a widespread consensus that ‘two states of affairs related by a symmetry transformation are really just the same state of affairs differently described’: that is, that if two mathematical models of a physical theory are related by a symmetry transformation, then those models represent one and t...
متن کاملAnalysis of the Causes and Consequences of Submarine Slope Failure
The link between sedimentation/erosion, pore pressure evolution and slope stability is being explored using analytical and numerical modeling. This modeling is being done in collaboration with Ulisses Mello of IBM’s T.J. Watson Research Center, who is an expert in hydrologic and structural simulations. Numerical modeling is also being used to simulate the effect of turbidity current erosion and...
متن کاملBayesian Model Averaging for the Prediction of Water Main Failure for Small to Large Canadian Municipalities
Water utilities often rely on water main failure prediction model for developing preventive or proactive repair and replacement action program. Due to inherent uncertainties in modeling, it is challenging to understand the water main failure processes and to predict the failure effectively. In this study, Bayesian model averaging (BMA) method is presented to identify the influential covariates ...
متن کاملNumerical analysis of slide-head-toppling failure
In layered and blocky rock slopes, toppling failure is a common mode of instability that may occur in mining engineering. If this type of slope failure occurs as a consequence of another type of failure, it is referred to as the secondary toppling failure. “Slide-head-toppling” is a type of secondary toppling failures, where the upper part of the slope is toppled as a consequence of a semi-circ...
