Research on the infiltrations in an earth dam. Case study: Cuibul Vulturilor Reservoir, Vaslui County, Romania

The dam of the reservoir Cuibul Vulturilor, located on Tutova river is an inhomogeneous earth with a maximum height 15.0 m, clayey central core and lateral prisms made clayey-dusty sands. For tracking evolution body seepage, 12 piezometers drainage pipe discharge in downstream connection channel bottom outlet are used. paper presents characteristic elements theoretical infiltration curve It also shows hydro isohypses for drawn SURFER program, using hydrostatic levels measured year 2019. distribution across strongly influenced by location other point measuring hydraulic head. pattern circulation water inside could be studied increased accuracy, if had been equipped several piezometers. Even these conditions, it clearly observed that regime infiltrations through similar to way behavior.
