In this research in numerical analysis software packages SIGMA / W based on the finite element method was to have been used. For this purpose, during the construction of the dam Kaboodval using behavioral models elastic - plastic and elastic non-homogeneous, non-linear elastic, linear elastic been analyzed and pore pressure, stresses in the body and its meeting with the Data Tools the compariso...

This research intends to develop a method based on the Artificial Neural Network (ANN) to predict permanent earthquake-induced deformation of the earth dams and embankments. For this purpose, data sets of observations from 152 published case histories on the performance of the earth dams and embankments, during the past earthquakes, was used. In order to predict earthquake-induced deformation o...

The seepage and slope stability are very important and necessary in the dam dirt are, therefore, in this context, numerous applications to predict and calculate the rate of leakage has been prepared that than the experimental time and cost savings for the analysis of liquids before construction of earth dams need. In this study, safety factors for slope stability software Kaboodwal  plaxis two-...

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 ...

The construction of a cut-off wall is common reinforcement method for earth rock dams. At present, compared with the in-depth study on homogeneous dams, more and attention being paid to stability deformation dams strengthened by concrete wall. In this study, aiming at Wujing project dam wall, influence water level rise fall slope, body, crack width crest were analyzed numerical calculation in s...
