Dewatering Structures in High Water Content Materials /

This paper describes the behaviour of soft soils created by the rapid deposition of a sediment slurry and the mechanisms by which pore fluid escapes from the consolidating bed. Such rapid deposition occurs as a result of dumping dredge spoils at sea or in the case of disposing of mine tailings in se...
