Geotechnical design of tailings dams - a stochastic analysis approach

Mine tailings dams are geotechnical structures that are designed to provide adequate and safe storage of tailings materials both during and after the end of mine life. The design of tailings dams is currently based on limit equilibrium methods (LEM) which are used to calculate slope stability safety...
