Field research to ensure the safety of the earth dam [PDF]
One of the ways to ensure the safe condition of earth dams during operation is to conduct field investigations on the structure. One of the factors leading to water spillage over the dam crest is the determination of settlement in the body of the earth ...

DESIGN OF GNSS NETWORKS FOR MONITORING EARTH DAMS DEFORMATIONS [PDF]
The paper presents a series of results regarding the application of GNSS technology for measuring displacements to earth dams. An appropriate horizontal and vertical deformation-tracking network must be established for the rapid monitoring of earthmoving

Heat and water flux modeling in an earth dam
This study aims to identify the water flux in an earth dam using heat flux due to convection. Sixteen earth dam models were constructed in a hydraulic flume by varying geometrical and flow input parameters to identify heat and water flux.
