Rockfill Dams: Dams with Sloping Earth Cores
Journal of the Power Division, 1958This paper briefly reviews the principles which govern the design of a rockfill dam and discusses six rockfill dams with which the author has been intimately acquainted since completion of the Nantahala Dam. Bear Creek Dam, one of these six, incorporates most improvements in design and construction learned from experience.

The failures at the Wachi Dam on the Yura River in Japan on July 2, 1967 and at the Folsom Dam on the American River near Sacramento, on July 17, 1995 are analyzed in light of the development of the self-excited coupled-mode instability mechanism. In both failures vibration of the gate was either suspected or noted by eyewitnesses. An exploratory study

Hoover Dam: Evolution of the Dam's Design
Hoover Dam, 2010Hoover Dam was a monumental accomplishment for its era which set new standards for feasibility studies, structural analysis and behavior, quality control during construction, and post-construction performance evaluations. One of the most important departures was the congressional mandate placed upon the U.S.

Arch Dams: Economy of Concrete Dams
Journal of the Power Division, 1957Safety and economy are considered in studies associated in final selection of type for large concrete dams; selection is further influenced by arrangement of dam and appurtenant works; pertinent unit cost data obtained from sources in various countries.
