Lechago dam. A case study [PDF]
, 2011 Lechago dam (Teruel, Spain) is a 40 m high zoned earth and rockfill dam sitting on soft continental deltaic deposits. A relatively narrow central clay core is stabilized by wide rockfill shoulders. The dam was well instrumented and continuous records of

Failure of infrastructure embankments induced by flooding and seepage: a neglected source of hazard [PDF]
, 2011 The risk of failure of transportation embankments due to seepage induced by temporary and occasional impoundments taking place on the upstream side as a consequence of exceptional rainfalls is frequently underestimated. These failure events result from a

Modeling Static Behavior of Rockfill Materials Based on Generalized Plasticity Model
Advances in Civil Engineering, 2019 Rockfill materials are commonly used for dam construction. Establishing an effective model that can reasonably describe the mechanical properties of rockfill material is very important for the calculation of earth-rock dam engineering.
