A Numerical Approach to Determine the In Situ State of Tailings

Kevin Bernardo,Nicolás Tasso - January 23, 2025

Accurately estimating the state parameter ψ of tailings storage facilities (TSFs) is crucial for ensuring their stability. A new method has been proposed to estimate the state parameter from CPTu data using a new tool: Pocket G-PFEM (Geotechnical Particle Finite Element Method).
