... pressure increases as water level rises up, and causes material degradation and strength reduction in several ways. The effective stress law made a remarkable success in describing the mechanical behavior of saturated soil, but its application is still limited in rock materials, especially when it comes...

.... Simulations of the development of the ZOR according to the mining schedule are important in the prediction of pore-pressure distribution within the slope. The model was calibrated against measured water levels, pore pressures, drains, and seepage rates. The calibrated model was then used to simulate...

... an advancing casing technique to ensure borehole stability and high wall integrity, to reduce water levels, and stabilize the slope. Although the conditions ultimately resulted in slope failure, the monitoring and dewatering approach developed successful techniques to mitigate future failures...

... surface subsidence and groundwater level variations. Subsidence approached 40 per cent of the mine height and continued more than a year after mining. Water levels declined in certain deep-lying strata. INTRODUCTION Pillar extraction has a long history of use in U.S. coal fields and, even though...

..., slippage along faults, and probably numerous other solid earth geophysical phenomena. It is also known that the solid earth tidal forces cause the water level in wells to fluctuate, the flow of springs to wax and wane, oil and gas production to vary, and the efflux of gas from rocks, such as methane from...
