New simplified design methods for engineering barriers around contaminated sites with Cauchy boundaries
Abstract Since the 1980s, low-permeability slurry trench cutoff walls have been widely constructed as barriers to retard the migration of contaminants. The thickness of the cutoff walls is a key determinant of the wall service life. Through a series of theoretical derivations, simplified methods for...
