Evaluating potential static liquefaction of tailings to prevent failures

这个项目的目的是通过制定一种方法来预测尾矿对静态液化的敏感性，从而减少采矿工业对尾矿失效的风险。尾矿的破坏对下游社区的影响是灾难性的。该项目汇集了许多行业合作伙伴，致力于协助验证和采用该项目中的特征和设计工具开发。这项建议将把实验室元件、离心机和校准室试验的结果与数值模拟和现场试验结合起来，以产生一种预测对静态液化易感性的方法。

This project aims to reduce risk in the mining industry from failing mine tailings by producing a methodology for predicting the susceptibility of these tailings to static liquefaction. The impact of a mine tailing failure is catastrophic to the downstream community. The project brings together a number of industry partners committed to assisting with verification and adoption of characterisation and designed tools development in this project. This proposal will integrate results from laboratory element, centrifuge and calibration chamber tests with numerical modelling and in-situ tests to produce a methodology for predicting the susceptibility to static liquefaction.
