Crack formation and damage evolution during consolidation in TBM driven tunnel linings in fine-grained soils [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The paper deals with the numerical modelling of crack formation in segmental tunnel linings. A series of numerical analyses was conducted using the finite difference code FLAC2D.

Contribution to Theme A of the Benchmark Workshop: Effect of Concrete Swelling on the Equilibrium and Displacements of an Arch Dam [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The Kariba dam is undergoing concrete expansion as a result of an alkali-aggregate reaction. The model adopted to simulate the process is explained in the paper; it is based on the model first proposed by Ulm et al, as later modified by Saouma and ...

Inverse Analysis of Thermal Parameters of Arch Dam Concrete Based on Walrus Optimization Algorithm

open access: yesApplied Sciences
In the simulation of concrete thermal stress fields, thermal parameters are crucial for calculating the concrete temperature field. In actual construction, due to the adjustment of the concrete mixing ratio and the changing external environment ...

The Hydraulics of Stepped Chutes and Spillways [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
The stepped channel design have been used for more than 3,500 years (chapter 2). A significant number of dams were built with overflow stepped spillways during the 19th century and early 20th century, before the design technique became outdated with the ...

Nonlinear Analysis Of Failure Mechanism Of Roller Compacted Concrete Dam [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Seismic effects have frequently caused damage to concrete dams. The consequences of a large dam failing can be disastrous, due to large amounts of damage of properties and human lives.

Historical development of arch dams: from cut-stone arches to modern concrete designs [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
Dam designs may be divided into three main types : gravity structures relying on their weight for stability, arch structures using the abutment reaction forces and buttress dams.
