Near fault and far fault seismic analysis of concrete gravity dam [PDF]
Journal of Hydraulic Structures, 2020 Ground motions records of the past higher magnitude (Mw>5) earthquakes have indicated that ground motions recorded at the closest distance of the near-fault are very different from those recorded from a higher distance from the site of the far-fault ...

Thermal-stress behaviour of RCC gravity dams [PDF]
FME Transactions, 2015 Roller Compacted Concrete (RCC) is a special concrete mixture with low cement content, frequently used for concrete gravity dams. This paper deals with the 3D finite element model for unsteady phased thermal-stress analysis of RCC dams. Model calibration

Seismic Performance Differences between Hardfill Dam and Gravity Dam [PDF]
长江科学院院报[Objective] To reveal the differences in seismic performance between hardfill dams and concrete gravity dams， this study investigates the nonlinear seismic response of the Oyuk dam （a typical hardfill dam） in Turkey and the non-overflow section of the ...

Fracture analysis of concrete gravity dam under earthquake induced loads
Journal of Applied Sciences and Environmental Management, 2011 In this paper, seismic fracture behavior of the concrete gravity dam using finite element (2D) theory has been studied. Bazant model which is non-linear fracture mechanics criteria as a measure of growth and smeared crack was chosen to develop profiles ...

Predicting seismic damage on concrete gravity dams: a review
Structure and Infrastructure Engineering, 2022 The seismic assessment of concrete gravity dams is a problem of prediction of cracking and the corresponding consequences. With the widespread use of general-purpose finite element programs, the work in the field has shifted towards quantifying the behaviour in a framework for assessment.

National Policy Coherence Counts for Reducing Inequality in Global Climate and Development Agendas
Sustainable Development, EarlyView.ABSTRACT International institutions promote policy coherence as crucial to the effective and fair implementation of global sustainability agendas, though the evidence for its benefits is slim. We present here the first systematic cross‐country dataset on the consequences of national government efforts to promote policy coherence for vulnerable groups ...

The damage to model concrete gravity dams subjected to water explosions
Defence Technology, 2023 Over the past century, the safety of dams has gradually attracted attention from all parties. Research on the dynamic response and damage evolution of dams under extreme loads is the basis of dam safety issues.
