Abstract
As a major hazard installation in mine the safe and effective running of a tailings dam is very important, therefore the stability analysis of tailings dam is necessary. In order to evaluate the effect of seepage on stability of mine tailings dam, in this paper, a numerical model of a tailings dam in Yunnan province was established by using ANSYS software. It was focused on the dam seepage field analysis and the seepage-stability analysis, and on using the strength reduction method to derive the safety coefficient of the tailings dam. The results were proved reasonable and could be used to provide helpful guidance of dam safety.
