Seismic Behavior of Zoned Core Embankment Dam
The aim of this investigation is to study the dynamic behavior of a zoned core earth-fill dam. Due to lack of suitable clay materials, the Mamloo dam is designed as zoned core that is composed of three vertical zones including central lean clay (CL) core and two sides clayey gravel (GC) layers. Seismic behavior of dam was analyzed in two cases including homogenous clayey core and zoned core by ...
متن کاملFailure Behavior of Granite Affected by Confinement and Water Pressure and Its Influence on the Seepage Behavior by Laboratory Experiments
Failure behavior of granite material is paramount for host rock stability of geological repositories for high-level waste (HLW) disposal. Failure behavior also affects the seepage behavior related to transportation of radionuclide. Few of the published studies gave a consistent analysis on how confinement and water pressure affect the failure behavior, which in turn influences the seepage behav...
متن کاملSeismic Behavior Evaluation of Concrete Elevated Water Tanks
Elevated tanks are important structures in storing vital products, such as petroleum products for cities and industrial facilities, as well as water storage. These structures have various types and are constructed in a way that a greater portion of their weight is concentrated at an elevation much about the base. Damage to these structures during strong ground motions may lead to fire or other ...
متن کاملSeismic Behavior Assessment of Concrete Elevated Water Tanks
Elevated tanks are very important structures and consist of various types. Water supply is vital to control fires during earthquakes. Also they are utilized to store different products, like petroleum supplies in cities and industrial zones. Damage to these structures during strong ground motions may lead to fire or other hazardous events. Elevated tanks should stay functional after and before ...
متن کاملPredicting Seismic Slope Displacements of Embankment Dams Using Fuzzy Systems
Iran, as a leading country in the dam construction industry, is located in one of the earthquake-prone regions of the world. Dams are important sources of hydroelectric power. Failure of these structures causes catastrophic damage. Therefore, evaluating the behavior of dams under seismic loading is an important issue. The present study focuses on the prediction of the slope displacements of emb...
