Abstract:
One of the most common type of embankment dam failure is the dam-break due to overtopping. In this study, the finite elements method has been used to analyze seepage and limit equilibrium method to study stability of the body of an earthfill dam during the flood condition. For this purpose, the software Geostudio 2012 is used through its subprograms SEEP/W and SLOPE/W. Al-Adhaim dam in Iraq has been chosen to analysis the 5 days of flood. It was found that the water flux of seepage during the flood reaches about 8.772*10-5. m3/sec when the water level 146.5 m at 2nd day. Seepage through the em

The earth dam type is widely used in the dam engineering. According to the investigation, the earth dam would suffer problems after running 100 to 200 years in good filling quality. However, in China, for many reasons, it would only need 30 to 40 years when problems occur. This essay study the problems about weak stress of earth dam by the site investigations, theoretic analysis and finite element analysis and put forward the theory of earth dam aging induced by stress weakening.

Abstract The effects of amplitude and phase difference of an earthquake motion on the seismic response of long earth dams were studied. The dam was modeled as a two-dimensional shear beam whereas the seismic input, applied at the base of the dam, assumed various forms to reflect the variation of amplitude and phase of the ground motion. A computer program, based on the finite element method, was developed to compute the dam response to each of the assumed base motions. It was noted that the length-to-height ratio of the dam has a marked effect on the dynamic characteristics of the dam and on i

Abstract:
For earth-rock dams influenced by rainstorms, seepage status monitoring is very important and provides the basis for the safe and effective operation of earth-rock dams. The most influential factors concerning the seepage of earth-rock dams are the reservoir water level, precipitation, temperature, and timeliness, and the influence of the reservoir water level and precipitation on the seepage of an earth-rock dam exhibits hysteretic effects. The reservoir water level of an earth-rock dam abruptly increases and may exceed the historically highest water level, therein causing new deformations of

In the design process of the earth-rock dam, the slope stability problem was always focused on. The shear strength of rockfill in the earth-rock dam had strong nonlinear characteristics. The characteristic directly affected the factor of safety (FOS) of stability of dam slope and the determination of the critical slip surface. The shear strength parameter of rockfill was related to the minimum principal stress σ3 closely. And the value of σ3 had close relationship with the deformation characteristics of filling material and the process of dam filling etc. Strength reduction method has been wid

This work evaluates the stability of the Boostan earth dam by investigating its long-term performance and interpreting the measured data. To measure the dam response, several sensitive locations are instrumented. This process includes measuring various quantities such as pore water pressure, water level, and internal stress ratios using inspection devices such as ordinary and Casagrande piezometers, and total pressure cells. The recorded data shows that the pore pressure is in good agreement with the initial (stable) design condition. The installed piezometers show that the drainage is efficie
