Evaluation 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...
متن کاملOPTIMAL GROUND MOTION SCALING USING ENHANCED SWARM INTELLIGENCE FOR SIZING DESIGN OF STEEL FRAMES
Dynamic structural responses via time history analysis are highly dependent to characteristics of selected records as the seismic excitation. Ground motion scaling is a well-known solution to reduce such a dependency and increase reliability to the dynamic results. The present work, formulate a twofold problem for optimal spectral matching and performing consequent sizing optimization based on ...
متن کاملNonlinear Analysis of Concrete Gravity Dams by Neural Networks
Multi-layer neural networks have been used in this paper for modeling nonlinear behaviour of concrete gravity dams under earthquake excitation. Koyna dam which has been studied extensively by other authors in the past has been studied as test example in this paper too, where the nonlinear response of its crest has been modelled by the proposed algorithm. The main steps of the algorithm are as f...
متن کاملConcrete Gravity Dams and Traveling Wave Effect along Reservoir Bottom
In the present article, effect of non-uniform excitation of reservoir bottom on nonlinear response of concrete gravity dams is considered. Anisotropic damage mechanics approach is used to model nonlinear behavior of mass concrete in 2D space. The tallest monolith of Pine Flat dam is selected as a case study. The horizontal and vertical components of 1967 Koyna earthquake is used to excite the s...
متن کاملOptimal Sensors Location Using Modal Assurance Criterion in Modal Identification of Concrete Gravity Dams
Determination of the optimal sensors location in order to identify of modal parameters, especially in large structures such as dams, is one of the practical issues, which is widely used in damage detection and structural health monitoring. The main objective of this study is to obtain the most information from the dynamic response in a concrete gravity dam by minimizing the non-diagonal element...
