Three-Dimensional Static and Dynamic Analyses of an Embedded Concrete-Face Rockfill Dam
, 2023 Concrete-face rockfill dams have gradually become the preferred dam type in the engineering community. This study presents a hydropower station in China as a case study to introduce a new type of embedded concrete-face rockfill dam.

Air entrainment and splash characteristics in jet flows: Effect of downstream water levels
River, Volume 4, Issue 3, Page 287-296, August 2025.Abstract This study investigates the air–water interaction dynamics in jet streams, with particular emphasis on the transition from the cavity to the far‐field regions. A dual‐tip conductivity phase‐detection probe was employed to analyze four distinct downstream water levels.

Numerical analysis of strengthening by rockfill embankments on an upstream tailings dam
, 2013 The consolidation process could be slow in an upstream tailings dam; therefore, the stability can reduce due to an increase in excess pore pressures when the dam is raised.

Near Surface Geophysics, Volume 23, Issue 2, Page 105-120, April 2025.Abstract Degradation within a manmade earth embankment structure is often unobservable from the surface. In order to evaluate the structural integrity of earth embankment levees and dams and identify subsurface zones of weakness that may result in the future failures of such structures, various geophysical methods have been proposed as effective ...

Computer-Aided Civil and Infrastructure Engineering, Volume 40, Issue 10, Page 1405-1417, 18 April 2025.Abstract Ensuring the safety of water networks is a research hotspot in the current water conservancy industry, and dams are an important part. However, over time, the dam is prone to varying degrees of aging and disease, most of which are structural cracks.

Engineering Reports, Volume 7, Issue 3, March 2025.This study proposed a method of modeling and analysis of dam slope plane deformation based on multi‐points monitoring data. Firstly, based on the sort out and analyze of actual monitoring data of the Hongjiadu CFRD, the deformation property of the dam has been mastered.

Seismic responses of high concrete face rockfill dams: A case study
Water Science and Engineering, 2016 Seismic responses of the Zipingpu concrete face rockfill dam were analyzed using the finite element method. The dynamic behavior of rockfill materials was modeled with a viscoelastic model and an empirical permanent strain model.

Journal of Flood Risk Management, Volume 18, Issue 1, March 2025.Abstract Off‐stream reservoirs are artificial water storage structures that increase the flood risk of an area. In some places, related risk reduction plans are based on a risk classification of these structures, which follows local water resource management regulations. These classification methods typically follow deterministic qualitative guidelines
