Earth dams have been damaged or even collapsed owing to earthquake liquefaction. Although a liquefied foundation is a major factor affecting the safety of earth dams, the …
Earthquake-induced permanent displacements and distortions, as well soil mass movements and cracks, may significantly affect the post-seismic serviceability of earth dams …
A Nardo, G Biondi, E Cascone - … Engineering Challenges to Meet …, 2024 - taylorfrancis.com
In this paper an original empirical formula for the prediction of the permanent crest settlement of earth dams is proposed starting from the results of a large set of 2D dynamic …
Global climate change is leading to prolonged periods of low rainfall followed by intense thunderstorms, causing severe droughts in vital water resources like rivers and reservoirs …
Many existing earth dams were designed before the establishment of a seismic code or in a period when the seismicity of the dam sites was approximately assessed. Accordingly, the …
2D numerical analyses have been performed with the aim of evaluating the seismic performance of the San Pietro dam subjected to a large set of horizontal seismic motion and …
