LEFM Applications to Concrete Gravity Dams
Journal of Engineering Mechanics, 1997The evaluation of the safety factor of old dams under higher flood levels in the last few years has been investigated under the assumptions of fracture mechanics. The extensive need for research in this field was recognized by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers that now requires a fracture mechanics investigation prior to the rehabilitation of cracked ...

Ce rapport pose les bases d'une méthode semi-probabiliste aux états-limites pour la justification des barrages poids. Pour ce faire, les travaux ont consisté dans une première partie, à établir une synthèse des principales justifications des barrages poids: calcul des actions et de leurs effets, résistance des matériaux, différentes justifications et ...

Journal of the Structural Division, 1967
The available literature on the subject of uplift is reviewed. The old and new theories are briefly discussed. With the acceptance of the pore pressure theory, chance occurrence of uplift has been resolved, and uplift is assured over the entire base area.

Gravity Dam Design and Analysis
1988A gravity dam is an essentially solid concrete structure that resists imposed forces principally by its own weight. Although usually straight in plan, these dams are sometimes curved or angled to accommodate site topography. They are the most common of the concrete types and the simplest type to design and build.

Foundations of Gravity and Arch Dams
1990It is most important that the interaction between structure and bedrock be taken into account in structural analyses of concrete dams since it critically influences the loading of the dam and the rock mass, particularly near to the bearing surface. The nature of the interaction between dam and bedrock in the various loading cases that may arise is ...
