چکیده

Tailings are the waste product of mining process, which normally consist of soil particles, water and chemical components. Conventional slurry deposition of tailings consists of hydraulic deposition of high water content slurry tailings behind a dam. This type of deposition might not be safe due to considerable risk of dam failure associated with susceptibility to static and dynamic liquefaction. Dewatered tailings were proposed to reduce the risk of dam failure by increasing the strength of tailings and potentially removing the cost of dam construction. Water recycling is another motivation of dewatered tailings. Since the dewatered tailings are normally deposited sub-aerially in tailings storage facilities, the volume change, hydraulic conductivity and shear strength behaviour of the deposited tailings are a function of unsaturated soil properties and fall in the realm of unsaturated soil mechanics. It is found that there is a stress history in cyclic deposition of dewatered tailings, which can be simulated by unsaturated soil mechanism and measuring soil-water characteristics curve of tailing.

اطلاعات بیشتر در مورد COI

COI مخفف عبارت CIVILICA Object Identifier به معنی شناسه سیویلیکا برای اسناد است. COI کدی است که مطابق محل انتشار، به مقالات کنفرانسها و ژورنالهای داخل کشور به هنگام نمایه سازی بر روی پایگاه استنادی سیویلیکا اختصاص می یابد.

کد COI به مفهوم کد ملی اسناد نمایه شده در سیویلیکا است و کدی یکتا و ثابت است و به همین دلیل همواره قابلیت استناد و پیگیری دارد.
