Determination of Crossarm Installation in Fill Dams by Back Analysis [PDF]
, 1997 This paper discusses a numerical model that can be used to optimize the installation in a zoned type and a homogeneous type fill dam. Before installation in a real dam to evaluate dam behavior, numerical model described in this paper is carried out on a ...

Theoretical study of the porosity effects on the shock response of graphitic materials
EPJ Web of Conferences, 2015 In this paper we present a theoretical study of the shock compression of porous graphite by means of combined Monte Carlo and molecular dynamics simulations using the LCBOPII potential. The results show that the Hugoniostat methods can be used with “pole”
