[ 1 ] - Sensitivity analysis of dynamic response of dam-reservoir-foundation system due to foundation material
The present study investigate the effects of mechanical properties of the rock layers in the foundation of concrete gravity dam on the seismic response of gravity dam–reservoir –foundation systems. The mutual effects of different domains are considered in the present research. As a case study the biggest section of Shafarud dam in the north of Iran is modeled two dimensionally using ABAQUS soft...
[ 2 ] - Numerical Investigation of dip angle direction of foundation Joint on nonlinear dynamic response of concrete gravity dams
The stability of a gravity dam on a jointed rock foundation might be endangered by weak joints that may be present in the fracture network of the bed rock. A review of the literature shows that there are few studies of the effect of a weak joint in the foundation rock on the stability of dams. This research uses the finite difference numerical modelling software ABAQUS to model a gravity dam, t...
