The relationship between void ratio and shear wave velocity of gold tailings

The relationship between void ratio and shear wave velocity of gold tailings

South Africa, as one of the world’s largest gold producing countries, also generates large amounts of tailings. These tailings are disposed in tailings dams, which pose great threat to the environment in the case of failure, in particular, liquefaction. In order to evaluate the potential of liquefac...
