Stability of earth–rockfill dams: Influence of geometry on the three-dimensional effect

Computers and Geotechnics, 2005
Abstract A series of parametric studies were performed to investigate the three-dimensional (3D) effect on the stability of an earth–rockfill dam, with respect to some major factors, such as geometrical characteristics of the dam and topography of the canyon. The length–height ratio of the earth–rockfill dam clearly influences the 3D safety factor. A

Dynamic Response and Mechanical Behaviours of Geogrid for High Earth-rockfill Dams

Geotechnical and Geological Engineering, 2021
Due to the complexity of the interaction between the geogrid and the soil interface in high earth-rock dams, the method of replacing the grid with steel bars may neglect the interaction between the geogrid and the soil. The finite difference software FLAC3D is applied, and the geogrid element is used to simulate the geogrid and the coupling interface ...

Research on Analyzing Earth Rockfill Dam Seepage and Slope Stability

Advanced Materials Research, 2014
Seepage damage has been one of the most important factors that affect the safe operation of embankment dams, So more consideration is taken into the saturated soil more than non-saturated soil. In this paper, we carry on the experiment by using SEEP/W software to take the flow field analysis of unsaturated soil of the core embankment dam.

An intelligent displacement back-analysis method for earth-rockfill dams

Computers and Geotechnics, 2007
Abstract An intelligent method for the effective displacement back-analysis of earth-rockfill dams was proposed by combining artificial neural networks and evolutionary calculation. This method employs artificial neural networks, with optimal architecture trained by the evolutionary calculation and Vogl’s algorithm, instead of the time-consuming ...
