1. Indicator kriging applied to RMR geomechanical modelling in a Pb-Zn deposit case study
Abstract The opening of a mining enterprise requires knowledge of the geomechanical characteristics of the mineral deposit, which will be worked according to the use of parameters of stability and/or resistance of the material, as well as the discontinuities present in the rock. In this study, the Rock Mass Rating methodology was used to propose a geomechani

2. Analysis of the impacts of slope angle variation on slope stability and NPV via two different final pit definition techniques
Abstract The traditionally and widely used Lerchs-Grossmann algorithm presents well-known limitations that newer propositions attempt to overcome. The direct block schedule (DBS) methodology, which has gained relevance with computational advances, obtains the final pit as a natural result of production sequencing, different from Lerchs-Grossmann-based algori

3. Interrill erodibility of different sandy soils increases along a catena in the Caiuá Sandstone Formation
ABSTRACT Soil erosion in tropical areas is a major problem for sustainability in agriculture and soil stability. In the Northwest of Paraná, cassava crop is produced using a conventional tillage system along a catena consisting of different soil classes: Ferralsols (near the summit), Lixisols (mid-slope), and Arenosols (foot-slope). Therefore, differential

4. SOIL COMPACTION AND THE STABILITY OF LEVEES OF AQUACULTURE PONDS
ABSTRACT The aim of this work was to evaluate the effects of variations in soil compaction on the stability of the slope embankments of fish farms used in aquaculture. Computational modeling was performed using the RocScience Slide 6.0 program, simulating filling scenarios, fast lowering and stationary regimes for the full operation of the fish farms. The da

5. Assessment of the effects of vegetational cover on the long-term stabilityof a waste rock dump
Abstract Waste rock dump reclamation includes re-grading the banks to flatten the overall slope followed by re-vegetation. These measures are required to reduce surface erosion, provide physical stability, and meet future use goals. In some cases, the presence of trees can cause localized shear zones in a waste rock dump by the load of the tree mass and the

6. Construction and Evaluation of a Graphene Oxide Functionalized Aminopropyltriethoxy Silane Surface Molecularly Imprinted Polymer Potentiometric Sensor for Dipyridamole Detection in Urine and Pharmaceutical Samples
A dipyridamole (DIP) based surface molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP) was synthesized and applied as a sensing agent in a sensing layer of a new modified potentiometric carbon paste electrode (CPE). The potentiometric modified CPEs (GO@SiO2-NH2-MIP/MWCNTs/CPE, where GO is graphene oxide and MWCNTs is multi-walled carbon nanotubes) showed an improved perform

7. Stability of Soil Moisture Patterns Retrieved at Different Temporal Resolutions in a Tropical Watershed
ABSTRACT Above and underground hydrological processes depend on soil moisture (SM) variability, driven by different environmental factors that seldom are well-monitored, leading to a misunderstanding of soil water temporal patterns. This study investigated the stability of the SM temporal dynamics to different monitoring temporal resolutions around the borde

8. Evaluation of Live Cuttings Effect on Slope Stability
ABSTRACT The aim of this work was to evaluate the development of shrub live cuttings and their effect on slope stability. Vertical in situ pullout tests and measurements of Phyllanthus sellowianus shoots and roots of 2, 4, 6, 8, 10 and 14 months old were conducted. Stability analyses were conducted for slopes with planar and curved rupture surfaces and for

9. Nanoporous Gold Surface: An Efficient Platform for Hydrogen Evolution Reaction at Very Low Overpotential
A nanostructured porous gold film (NPGF) was fabricated onto a gold electrode surface by an electrochemical approach involving anodization followed by electrochemical reduction in absence of binary alloys, templates and chemical reducing agents. The electrocatalytic activity of the as-fabricated electrocatalyst was examined towards hydrogen evolution reactio

10. Landslides Zonation Hazard: relation between geological structures and landslides occurrence in hilly tropical regions of Brazil
ABSTRACT This paper presents a new approach of landslides zonation hazard studies, based on an integrated study of structural data along with geomorphological and external factors, in a hilly regions of Brazil, covered by a tropical humid rain-forest, called Serra do Mar. The Serra do Mar consists of a hilly region along the east coast of Brazil, with high s

11. Aggregate Stability in Soil with Humic and Histic Horizons in a Toposequence under Araucaria Forest
ABSTRACT Aggregate stability is one of the most important factors in soil conservation and maintenance of soil environmental functions. The objective of this study was to investigate the aggregate stability mechanisms related to chemical composition of organic matter in soil profiles with humic and histic horizons in a toposequence under Araucaria moist fore

12. PERFORMANCE OF ANALYSIS METHODS OF SLOPE STABILITY FOR DIFFERENT GEOTECHNICAL CLASSES SOIL ON EARTH DAMS
ABSTRACT The aim of this study was to evaluate the performance of less accurate analysis methods of slope stability, in order to reduce the number of operations used by the most accurate methods available in the literature. The study evaluated four methods for calculating slope stability. Fellenius (FELLENIUS, 1936), Bishop (BISHOP, 1955), Simplified Bishop
