Key Technologies in the Design and Construction of 300 m Ultra-High Arch Dams

open access: yesEngineering, 2016
Starting with the Ertan arch dam (240 m high, 3300 MW) in 2000, China successfully built a total of seven ultra-high arch dams over 200 m tall by the end of 2014. Among these, the Jinping I (305 m), Xiaowan (294.5 m), and Xiluodu (285.5 m) arch dams have

Temperature field forecast in concrete dam with the use of ARIMA models and the finite element method [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
This article describes a forecasting method, with the application of statistical models Auto-Regressive Integrated Moving Average (ARIMA) and a heat conduction model to forecast the temperature field in a buttress block of Itaipu dam. Monthly temperature

Immersive Gamified Training Simulations for Visualization of Structural Maintenance With Virtual Reality

open access: yesComputer Applications in Engineering Education, Volume 34, Issue 2, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Identification of damage and key structural elements is vital to the monitoring and management of civil engineering projects, education, and training. However, practical inspection training is often constrained by cost, safety risk, and limited access to real structures, which reduces opportunities for repeated practice and feedback‐rich ...

Online Modal Identification of Concrete Dams Using the Subspace Tracking-Based Method

open access: yesShock and Vibration, 2019
To investigate the time-varying dynamic characteristics of concrete dams under the excitation of large earthquakes for online structural health monitoring and damage evaluation, an online modal identification procedure based on strong-motion records is ...

A Review on Seismic Response of Concrete Arch Dam

open access: yes, 2021
Abstract - Seismic safety of concrete arch dams are of significant concern as it may exhaust the social and economic wellbeing of humanity. Dam –Foundation and Dam- Reservoir interactions greatly influenced the dynamic behavior of arch dams. Under earthquake excitations, geological features of dam systems behave rigorously.

Effect of Material Non-linearities on the Transient Dynamic Behavior of the Beni-Bahdel Dam in the Presence of the Dam-foundation Interaction [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
The current paper's goal is to investigate how dynamic interaction phenomena and material nonlinearities affect the dynamic behavior of a concrete gravity multi-arch dam in terms of maximum displacements, natural stresses, principal stresses, and Von ...

Reconstructing human‐induced geomorphic changes through historical maps and multitemporal remote sensing data in the Cancano–San Giacomo di Fraele reservoirs (Central Alps, Italy)

open access: yesEarth Surface Processes and Landforms, Volume 51, Issue 3, March 2026.
Reconstructing ~200 years of landscape change at the Cancano–San Giacomo hydroelectric system (Central Alps), we integrate historical cartography, archival photographs, multitemporal aerial/satellite imagery and field validation to map pre‐ and post‐impoundment landforms.
