Dam break analysis plays a very important role in the risk assessment of dams. Large dams pose significantly higher risks to the people and property downstream of the dam as compared to smaller dams. So the flooding risk due to the possible failure of large dams is more crucial. The simulation of exceptional events characterized by high hydraulic and hydro-geologic risk is an actual problem for...

Lots of dam failures are the result uncontrolled seepage. The collapse Situ Gintung Dam in Tangerang, Banten-Indonesia 2009 due to heavy rains caused structure collapse. This is increased pore water pressure landfill. To anticipate seepage, it necessary monitor based on behavior changes rainfall and reservoir levels. Seepage within body often monitored using instrumentation tools such as standp...

The Benínar Dam, located in Southeastern Spain, is an earth-fill dam that has experienced filtration issues since its construction 1985. Despite the installation of various monitoring systems, data collected are sparse and inadequate for dam’s lifetime. present research integrates Multi-Temporal Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (MT-InSAR) modeling to validate this dam, opening way enhan...

In this study, based on data from instrumentation Kaboodval earth dam, pore pressure, stresses and the meeting of the dam construction period compared with the values ​​of numerical analysis. For this purpose, during the construction of the dam using Mohr-Coulomb model behavior, the softening, hardening model has been analyzed and pore pressure, stresses in the body and its meeting with instrum...

considering the seepage and choosing an efficient sealing method is very important in dam projects. this issue has a close relationship with engineering geological properties of the dam site. chapar-abad dam is an inhomogeneous earth-fill dam of 44.5 meters height, crest length about 427 meters and a reservoir capacity of 127 million cubic meters. the dam project is under construction and is lo...
