this study simulates the temperature field and temperature stress of concrete face slabs, considering the cold waves that occur during construction as well as the contact friction between the face slabs and the cushion layer. the results show that when a cold wave occurs during construction, the surface and center temperature of the face slabs continually drop with the outside air temperature, ...

seismic behavior of a rockfill dam with asphalt-concrete core has been studied utilizing numerical models with material parameters determined by laboratory tests. the case study selected for these analyses, is the meyjaran asphalt core dam, recently constructed in northern iran, with 60 m height and 180 m crest length. the numerical analyses have been performed using a nonlinear three dimension...

During construction of concrete faced rockfill dam (CFRD), the extrusion-sidewall will be protruding or deficiency under normal. Before panel construction, local slope cutting should taken for squeezed side wall supplementary filling measures after excavating wall, which affect mechanical deformation panel. According to monitoring data concrete-faced dams some hydro-electric station in Hubei Pr...
