Dams, Dams and More Dams: Issues in Evaluating Business Cases for Dam Expansion in Australia
Environmental Research Communications, 2023 Abstract Conventional interventions for mitigating flood risk and increasing water security often focus on large-scale engineering solutions despite evidence of significant cost overruns and negative environmental impacts. This study is an example of participatory research in water economics, motivated (and requested) by concerns from ...

Dam Safety: Use of Instrumentation in Dams
Journal of Earth Sciences and Geotechnical Engineering, 2020 Dam safety concerns do not stop at site selection, or the design and construction stages of a dam, but continue throughout its whole life. Seeing to safety issues of any dam is done by following up its behavior through visual observation supplemented and enriched by data collection from all the devices installed on or implanted in a dam to follow its ...
