  1. 11. Re-processing Reflection Seismic Data at a Quick-clay Landslide Site in Southwest Sweden

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Geofysik

    Author : Zhaochen Mu; [2022]
    Keywords : reprocess; reflection seismic; tomography; quick-clay; landslide;

    Abstract : This MSc thesis reprocessed seismic data collected at a site near the Gota River in 2011, focusing on two lines. The two seismic lines ran through a landslide scar zone for a total length of 1 km, both of which used dynamite as the seismic source. READ MORE

  3. 12. Geomechanical testing of non-hardening grout : for determination of flowability and strength properties

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Geoteknologi

    Author : Axel Barrdahl; [2022]
    Keywords : Non-hardening; Grout; Embankment dam; Repair; Fall cone; Uniaxial Compressive Strength; UCS; Triaxial;

    Abstract : Due to an increasing amount of aging tendencies in Swedish embankment dams, failures such as internal erosion has become a more common problem. Internal erosion is a phenomenon where certain soil material within the embankment dam is removed, often over a longer period of time. READ MORE

  4. 13. Rock Strength Testing of Drill Core Samples From Kiirunavaara Below Level 1365

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper
