For the structural health diagnostic of concrete dams, mathematical monitoring model based on measured deformation values is great significance. The main purpose this paper to reconstruct ageing component and temperature in traditional Hydraulic-Seasonal-Time (HST) hybrid by combining values. On one hand, a better for displacement dams proposed combined with Burgers separate instantaneous elast...

<p>In response to the abnormal data mining in dam safety monitoring, and based on traditional spectral clustering, this paper presents an anomaly detection method improved clustering. This applies a distance density adaptive similarity measure. The natural eigenvalue is introduced adaptively select neighbors of points, redefined be combined with k-nearest neighbor. Furthermore, shared nei...

This paper firstly described the dam break in the aspects of theories and models. Break parameters prediction, the understanding of dam break mechanics, peak outflow prediction were shown as the essential for the dam break analysis, and eventually determined the loss of the damages. Secondly, as an application example, Foster Joseph Sayers Dam break was further modeled and analyzed using USACE ...

BACKGROUND Decision-analytic modelling (DAM) has become a widespread method in health technology assessments (HTA), but the extent to which modelling is used differs among international HTA institutions. In Germany, the use of DAM is optional within HTAs of the German Institute of Medical Documentation and Information (DIMDI). Our study examines the use of DAM in DIMDI HTA reports and its effec...

DNA adenine methylase (Dam(-)) mutants of Salmonella enterica are attenuated in the mouse model and present multiple virulence-related defects. Impaired interaction of Salmonella Dam(-) mutants with the intestinal epithelium has been tentatively correlated with reduced secretion of pathogenicity island 1 (SPI-1) effectors. In this study, we show that S. enterica Dam(-) mutants contain lowered l...

Ethiopia began constructing the Grand Ethiopian Renaissance Dam (GERD) in 2011 on Blue Nile near borders of Sudan for electricity production. The dam was constructed as a roller-compacted concrete (RCC) gravity-type dam, comprising two power stations, three spillways, and Saddle Dam. main is expected to be 145 m high 1780 long. After filling estimated volume water bounded about 74 billion m3. f...
