1. Detection of seepage paths in small earth dams using the self-potential method (SP)
Abstract The application of geoelectric methods, such as induced polarization (IP), the electrical resistivity and the self-potential (SP), presents an important indirect study methodology in several areas of geology, such as mining, geotechnics and environmental geology. The present study deals with the results of the application of the self-potential metho

2. Stabilization of sandy soil with high content of asphalt emulsion
Abstract The purpose of this article is to evaluate the shear strength parameters of mixtures of sandy soil with high asphalt emulsion contents for their use in geotechnical structures, such as zoned earth dams, embankments, etc. The methodology adopted consisted of: collecting and characterizing samples of sandy soil to be laboratory tested; compacting the

3. Long-term behavior of mortars produced with sulfide-bearing aggregates
ABSTRACT The variety of sulfides (inorganic compounds formed by combining sulfur with a metal element) presented in earth crust is not small, which makes it difficult to avoid the use of sulfide-bearing aggregates in the concrete, especially in places where another source of material is non-existent or economically impracticable, as is the case of dams.

5. Geophysical investigation of earth dam using the electrical tomography resistivity technique
Abstract Dams are structures that dam rivers and streams for a variety of purposes. These structures often need to be sturdy to withstand the force of the impoundment and the high values of accumulated water load. The constant maintenance of these structures is essential, since a possible accident can lead to damage of catastrophic proportions. This research

6. 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

7. Formas de construcao e utilizacao de barreiros na regiao semi-arida da Bahia.
Na regiao semi-arida do Nordeste brasileiro, a quantidade de agua de chuva que cai e de aproximadamente 700 bilhoes de m3/ano, o que toma o semi-arido nordestino diferente das demais regioes semi-aridas do mundo. A maior parte dessa chuva nao e aproveitada em todo o seu potencial pois, mesmo existindo grande quantidade de barreiros e acudes no Nordeste, 36 b

8. Dinâmica do uso dos recursos hídricos nas bacias do ribeirão Entre Ribeiros e do rio Preto, afluentes do rio Paracatu / Water resources use dynamics in watersheds of Ribeirão Entre Ribeiros and Rio Preto, tributaries of the Paracatu River
From times past, humanity confronts problems of environmental degradation. The environment, which always performed efficiently its function of filtration, today finds itself excessively overburdened by human activities: it suffers the risk of its resources exhausting, not being able in certain situations to recuperate itself and needing the help of man.

9. MODELAGEM NUMÉRICA DE FLUXO 3D EM MEIOS POROSOS / NUMERICAL MODELING OF 3D FLOW IN POROUS MEDIA
Numerical simulations tend to simplify the behavior of real problems, mainly through the choice of 2D models to describe the hydromechanical responses of earth dams, excavations, foundations, etc., partly because it is easier to construct geometrical meshes, it is simpler to impose the required boundary conditions, the computer calculations are done more rap

10. ANÁLISE NUMÉRICA DO ALTEAMENTO DE BARRAGENS DE TERRA / NUMERICAL ANALYSIS OF RAISING EARTH DAMS
One of the activities related to dam constructions involves the raising of the existent structure, normally done with the objective of increasing the water storage capacity of the reservoirs, improving the safety factor of the embankment slopes or to ensure a better protection against possible water flooding. The raising of an earth dam can be predicted in t

11. COMPORTAMENTO GEOTÉCNICO DA BARRAGEM DE CURUÁ-UNA, PARÁ / GEOTECHNICAL BEHAVIOR OF CURUÁ-UNA DAM, PARÁ.
The geotechnical behavior of Curuá-Una dam, Pará, was studied due its importance to the North Region of Brazil. The power plant, in operation since 1977, is located in the Amazon forest, next to the city of Santarém. The study was comprised of the evaluation of current operation conditions of the dam and prediction of its performance after a possible rise

12. ANALYSIS OF FLOW REGIME IN CURUÁ-UNA DAM, PARÁ. / ANÁLISE DAS CONDIÇÕES DE FLUXO NA BARRAGEM DE CURUÁ-UNA, PARÁ
A análise das condições de fluxo na barragem de Curuá-Una (Pará) tem como objetivo avaliar a viabilidade geotécnica quanto à elevação do nível de operação do reservatório. A Usina de Curuá-Una (operada pela REDE Celpa) é responsável pelo abastecimento elétrico de Santarém. No entanto, nos horários de grande consumo, a produção de energia
