The reliability of non‐linear dynamic analysis aimed to predict the seismic performance of
structural and geotechnical systems, as well as their dynamic interaction, is significantly …

In this paper the results of 2D dynamic finite element analyses of a zoned earth dam are
presented and discussed with the aim of detecting proper intensity measures able to …

In this study, new empirical predictive relationships for earthquake-induced crest settlement
of earth-core rockfill dams (ECRDs) were developed. A case history database of 19 dams …

In this study, the seismic response analysis of embankment dams was investigated through
numerical modeling. The seismic behavior of dams under main earthquake records and …

Abstract 2D dynamic numerical analyses of a zoned earth dam located in a high seismic
hazard area of Southern Italy have been carried out. In the analyses soil behaviour has …

Earthquake-induced permanent displacements and distortions, as well soil mass
movements and cracks, may significantly affect the post-seismic serviceability of earth dams …

The seismic performance of dams must be checked against expected ground motions
verifying the possible occurrence of a serviceability or of an ultimate limit state. In this …

The settlement at the dam crest induced by earthquake loading is an important design
parameter widely used to evaluate the seismic performance of dams. Two-dimensional …

The present work attempts to study the seismic behaviour of two earthen dams, viz. Chang
and Kaswati dam, located in Gujarat, India for different sets of time histories. Each set …

The object of the study is a concrete station dam of a run-of-river hydroelectric power plant
(HPP). A review of publications on the methods of calculating the dynamic responses of …
