Rapid Drawdown in Homogeneous Earth Dam Considering Transient Flow and Suction

The present work intends to demonstrate the advantages of considering transient flow regime in the stability analysis of the upstream slope for the rapid drawdown situation of a homogeneous earth dam. Upstream slope stability evaluations were carried out, considering pore pressure and suction from t...
