Internal erosion is the main cause of failure of hydraulic structures such dykes and dams. The consequences of such failures are substantial and costly. The objective of this thesis is to better understand one of the erosion phenomena, the suffusion, and to characterize the initiation and the evolution of this phenomenon. A physical modeling approach is used for this study. Tests are carried out in a Plexiglas pipe of 18 cm inner diameter, equipped with pressure sensors, flowmeter and turbidimeter. A device for collecting the eroded particles, at selected time intervals, is installed in the downstream part of the device. In this study we performed a series of tests on coarse cohesionless soil. In this type of material, erosion is manifested...
