Dam breach is rare but catastrophic event that occurs when a dam fails and releases impounded water downstream causing significant damage. Dam breach has a low probability of occurrence but carries high risk of destruction. Dudhkoshi Storage Hydroelectric Project (DKSHEP) concrete‐faced rock‐fill dam (CFRD) was studied for dam breach under overtopping ...

Polymer modified pervious concrete
Pervious/permeable/no-fines concrete is a material with the same basic components as the standard concrete but designed to have high porosity. The typical properties of pervious concrete are: good drainage properties, high noise absorption properties, ability to reduce urban heat islands, poor mechanical properties, low abrasion and freeze-thaw ...

On the Theoretical CO2 Sequestration Potential of Pervious Concrete
Pervious concrete, which has recently found new applications in buildings, is both energy- and carbon-intensive to manufacture. However, similar to normal concrete, some of the initial CO2 emissions associated with pervious concrete can be sequestered ...
