STABILITY BASED OPTIMUM DESIGN OF CONCRETE GRAVITY DAM USING CSS, CBO AND ECBO ALGORITHMS
This study presents shape optimization of a gravity dam imposing stability and principal stress constraints. A gravity dam is a large scale hydraulic structure consisting of huge amount of concrete material. Hence, an optimum design gives a cost-benefit structure due to the fact that small changes in shape of dam cross-section leads to large saving of concrete volume. T...
متن کاملSHAPE OPTIMIZATION OF CONCRETE GRAVITY DAMS CONSIDERING DAM–WATER–FOUNDATION INTERACTION AND NONLINEAR EFFECTS
This study focuses on the shape optimization of concrete gravity dams considering dam–water–foundation interaction and nonlinear effects subject to earthquake. The concrete gravity dam is considered as a two–dimensional structure involving the geometry and material nonlinearity effects. For the description of the nonlinear behavior of concrete material under earthquake loads, the Drucker–Prager...
متن کاملSimulating nonlinear behavior of CMD material in seismic analysis of concrete gravity dam
In recent years, a new type of dams namely CMD, has attracted so much attention. Different amounts of cement cause a type of behavior that be somewhere between those of embankment dams and conventional concrete dams. This behavior is not perfectly clarified and its analysis, especially under dynamical loading and in nonlinear region of the material, remains unclear. In this paper, Tobetsu dam h...

متن کاملAdvances on the Failure Analysis of the Dam—Foundation Interface of Concrete Dams
Failure analysis of the dam-foundation interface in concrete dams is characterized by complexity, uncertainties on models and parameters, and a strong non-linear softening behavior. In practice, these uncertainties are dealt with a well-structured mixture of experience, best practices and prudent, conservative design approaches based on the safety factor concept. Yet, a sound, deep knowledge of...
