The traditionalconcepts that constitute the framework for geotechnical engineering are often insufficient on their own to provide a basis for solving geotechnical problems associated with frontier resource developments. Studies are reported on the creep of permafrost slopes, the mechanics of...

Preliminary evaluation of Speswhite kaolin as a physical analogue material for unsaturated oil sands tailings
Download2023-10-02
Thin-lift deposition of treated oil sands tailings is currently investigated as a potential solution for creating a trafficable cap layer for future reclamation activities. To determine the optimal thickness of the cap layer, physical modeling experiments using the 50g-ton geotechnical beam...
