System for concrete dam reliability with respect to foundation stability
In order to perform a complete risk analysis of a dam facility, it is necessary to have information about the probability and consequences of failure. To analyze the probability of failure of a concrete dam, all components and all failure modes must be ...

Influence of concrete heel shape on stress and deformation of concrete slab of a dam
The embedded concrete composite dam is a new type of dam which can improve the stress and deformation conditions of a high concrete face rockfill dam. Further analysis of the influence of the concrete structure of the heel of the dam on the stress and ...

Application of PFMA in safety monitoring of concrete face rockfill dams
With the development of dam risk management concept, potential failure mode analysis (PFMA) method is becoming more and more widely used. The design of dam safety monitoring based on traditional engineering safety concept lacks pertinence to hidden ...

A factor mining model with optimized random forest for concrete dam deformation monitoring
The unique structure of a dam complicates safety monitoring. Deformation can provide important information about dam evolution. In contrast to model prediction, actual dam response monitoring data can be used for diagnosis and early warning.

The cohesive frictional crack model applied to the analysis of the dam-foundation joint [PDF]
The mechanical behaviour of dam-foundation joints plays a key role in concrete dam engineering since it is the weakest part of the structure and therefore the evolutionary crack process occurring along this joint determines the global load-bearing ...

Advances on the Failure Analysis of the Dam—Foundation Interface of Concrete Dams [PDF]
Failure analysis of the dam-foundation interface in concrete dams is characterized by complexity, uncertainties on models and parameters, and a strong non-linear softening behavior. In practice, these uncertainties are dealt with a well-structured mixture of experience, best practices and prudent, conservative design approaches based on the safety ...
