Some experimental relations have been developed for determining the grout curtain depth, but these relations cannot be applied to any dam with any geological condition. Therefore, the effect of the grout curtain depth on seepage through foundation and abutments of each dam should be studied separately. To examine this parameter in Karun 4 dam, the numerical modeling method was applied using FLA...

In recent years, the structure of the electricity industry has undergone a change and since November 2003, when the electricity market of the country was launched, its monopoly structure has become a competitive structure. In this market, the forecast of electricity prices is not only necessary in pricing but also plays an important role in finding the optimal operation strategy by the power pl...

In the present paper, fluctuations of inflow into the Karun-4 Dam under different scenarios of the climate change for the future period of 2021-2050 were investigated. For this purpose, the outputs of the HadCM3 model under the scenarios of B1 (optimistic) and A2 (pessimistic) were utilized for the fourth report; additionally, the outputs of the ensemble model under RCP 2.6 (optimistic) and RCP...
