Investigating 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...
متن کاملbore propagation due to sudden dam failure
the problem of creation and subsequent propagation of bore has been examined and studied by a number of investigators who they were interested in unsteady flow problems for which sudden changes in either flow or depth or both occur. in this paper, the shock conditions and the method of characteristics for predicting the downstream flooding produced by a dam failure. in the dam-break problem whe...
متن کاملExperimental Study of Breaching of an Earthen Dam using a Fuse Plug Model
Failure of dams due to overtopping is among the most frequent forms of embankment failures. Owing to massive and wide spread damage to structures and loss of lives associated with a dam failure, the subject has drawn the attention of scientists. The study also becomes essential for damage assessment and for development of early warning system of people downstream of the embankment. The rate of ...
متن کاملEmbankment dam spillways and energy dissipators
For the last fifty years, the design floods of a number of embankment dams were re-evaluated and the revised spillway outflows are often larger than the original design discharges. Several embankment overtopping protection systems were developed for earthfill structures, and the applications range from river dykes to tsunami protections including embankment dams. Well-known designs include timb...
متن کاملForecasting embankment dam behaviour with artificial intelligence
Forecasting dam behaviour is of paramount importance to avoid collapses. It consists of detecting and controlling deterioration mechanisms. This paper sets out to propose a multi model methodology to model complex dynamic systems, such as dams. It defines three models based on expert knowledge: a structural model, a functional model and a behavioural model. They are developed from the stories o...
