Investigating the effect of material stiffness contrast on the dynamic stability of upstream tailings dams (Case study: Esfordi tailings dam)

The effect of mechanical properties of upstream tailings dams is investigated under seismic loads. For this, the finite-difference numerical method under the Finn-Byrne nonlinear elastoplastic constitutive model was implemented. Variations of elastic modulus and Poisson’s ratio in the typical range...
