Dye Test within Mosul Dam Area

چکیده
Mosul Dam is located on the River Tigris about 60 km north of city in Iraq. The dam a multipurpose earth fill with storage capacity 11.11 million cubic meters, which was operation since 1986. During first impounding its reservoir, seepage water underneath foundation noticed due to desolation gypsum beds. This raised concern stability and then grouting were carried out. ISIS occupied 8 - 16 August 2014. Grouting operations stopped number equipment buildings destroyed during that short period. After defeat ISIS, Iraqi Ministry Water Resources rebuilt constructed parts within site new maintenance program adopted. New training courses for staff conducted Trevi Company US Army Corps Engineers. In this paper, dye test highlighted monitor groundwater site. It seems stable present conditions level height.

متن کاملSpace geodetic monitoring of engineered structures: The ongoing destabilization of the Mosul dam, Iraq
We present a detailed survey of the ongoing destabilization process of the Mosul dam. The dam is located on the Tigris river and is the biggest hydraulic structure in Iraq. From a geological point of view the dam foundation is poor due to a site geology formed by alternating strata of highly soluble materials including gypsum, anhydrite, marl and limestone. Here we present the first multi-senso...

متن کاملInvestigating the vulnerability downstream area of Taleghan dam due to dam failure
Due to the immense damage caused by dam failure, especially dams constructed near large cities, it is necessary to consider the breaking phenomena as well as studying and designing different parts of the dam. For this purpose, the hydrograph of the outflow due to dam failure must be identified according to size of the fracture and then flood routing, and flood zone must be determined based on t...
