Assessment of the Upstream Slope Stability of Darbandikhan Rockfill Dam during Drawdown
ARO-The Scientific Journal of Koya University, 2021 Earth and rockfill dams face a variety of loading conditions during lifetime. One of the most critical loading conditions is the rapid drawdown of water level after steady state conditions.

Study on compound structure of concrete gravity dam-face rockfill dam
Shuili Shuiyun Gongcheng Xuebao, 2022 In view of the outstanding problems in super high concrete face rockfill dams, such as large deformation of concrete face plate, easy opening of concrete face joint and non-maintenance of bottom face plate, etc., a new type of dam body structure suitable

A three-dimensional elasto-plastic dynamic response procedure for concrete-faced rockfill dams
International Journal of Distributed Sensor Networks, 2018 Equivalent linear dynamic analysis is the primary method of analysis for concrete-faced rockfill dams during earthquake. However, this method cannot be directly used to estimate permanent deformation during earthquake, which is important to evaluate the ...

A simulation-optimization approach to determine optimum features of detention rockfill dams under flood condition [PDF]
مهندسی منابع آب, 2019 Detention rockfill dams are one of the structural methods that can control flood risks with no impermeable core or membrane. These dams decrease the maximum discharge of flood hydrograph and postpone the time of its occurrence reducing life and financial

Unified modeling behavior of rockfill materials along different loading stress paths
Soils and Foundations, 2022 Rockfill materials used for dam construction show obvious stress path dependency during construction process. The constitutive model for rockfill materials are mainly established based on conventional triaxial test.

Deformation of rockfill in bodies of rockfill dams
Stroitel stvo nauka i obrazovanie [Construction Science and Education], 2019 Introduction. The main factor determining the stress-strain state (SSS) of rockfill dam with reinforced concrete faces is deformability of the dam body material, mostly rockfill. However, the deformation properties of rockfill have not been sufficiently studied yet for the time being due to technical complexity of the matter, Materials and methods. To

Journal of Flood Risk Management, Volume 19, Issue 2, June 2026.ABSTRACT The reliability of flood event simulations is a crucial aspect in terms of saving lives. The worst flood scenarios derive from possible dam failures. For earthen dams, the breaching mechanism, triggered by overtopping or piping, is affected by several modelling uncertainties, which propagate downstream and may influence flood hazard mapping ...

Extrapolation-Based Scale Effect Model for Granular Heap Modulus
Advances in Civil Engineering, 2023 The numerical analysis was used to predict the rockfill dam displacement, and the model parameters were calibrated using the triaxial experiments on scale-down rockfill samples. Due to the scale effect of rockfill material, the displacements were usually
