Are There Any Differences in Seismic Performance Evaluation Criteria for Concrete Arch Dams?
Differences between stress-based and strain-based criteria are investigated in seismic performance evaluation of the arch dams in time domain. A numerical model of the coupled dam-reservoir-foundation system is prepared with the finite element technique. Reservoir is modeled using the Eulerian approach as a compressible domain, and the foundation rock is assumed to be massless. Dynamic equilibr...

متن کاملNear-fault seismic damage patterns and failure scenarios prediction of concrete gravity dams using nonlinear incremental dynamic analysis
Performance based earthquake engineering approach has been under evolution for seismic safety assessment of structures. Qualitative and quantitative definition of seismic performance levels is major challenge of concrete gravity dams. The main purpose of this article is damage patterns and failure scenarios prediction of structure while they prepare a suitable basement to determine dam seismic ...
متن کاملCurrent Seismic Safety Requirements for Large Dams and Their Implication on Existing Dams
Large dams, especially concrete dams, have been designed against earthquakes since the construction of Hoover dam in the 1930s. The design criteria and methods of analysis used in those times are outdated today and the actual seismic safety of these structures is not known in view of today’s requirements. Earthquake action was usually taken into account pseudostatically, through an inertia forc...
متن کاملEvaluation of the effect of reservoir length on seismic behavior of concrete gravity dams using Monte Carlo method
In present study, the effect of reservoir length on seismic performance of concrete gravity dam has been investigated. Monte Carlo probabilistic analysis has been used to achieve a sensitivity of the responses to variation of truncated reservoir length in finite element model. The ANSYS software based on finite element method is applied for modeling and analysis. The Pine Flat dam in California...
