Numerical Analysis of an Upstream Tailings Dam Subjected to Pond Filling Rates

One of the challenges in upstream tailings dam projects is to ensure the allowable rate of deposition of tailings in the pond (i.e., pond filling rate) while maintaining the stability of the dam. This is due to the fact that an upstream tailings dam is constructed by placing dikes on top of previous...
