Dams are singular infrastructures whose safety assessment requires mathematical models
for predicting its behavior and detecting anomalies. Here, we develop an approach based …

Considering that the effect of solar radiation on the super‐high arch dam temperature field
remains poorly studied, the calculation accuracy of dam temperature deformation is unable …

Temperature distribution on the exposed face (especially the downstream face) of arch
dams is non-uniform, to a certain extent, due to the variation in solar radiation striking the …

Mastering the real temperature distribution of the concrete dam is the basis for solving the
problem of temperature control and crack prevention. In this paper, Distributed Temperature …

Seasonal temperature displacements are an important component of the total displacements
recorded by pendulum measurements at gravity dams located in northern regions. A hybrid …

A methodology for computing thermal loads in arch dams is proposed. The methodology
considers the nonuniform distribution of solar insolation over dam faces because of shading …

With the development of urban subway system, intersection is sometimes inevitable during
the construction of underground tunnels. When a tunnel to be excavated is underneath an …

This paper examines the influence of monolith length on the temperature field of concrete
gravity dams built using the block method. The developed 3D model is capable of …

The effect of solar radiation on thermal distribution in thin high arch dams is investigated.
The differential equation governing thermal behavior of mass concrete in three‐dimensional …

A new analytical solution of the heat diffusion equation under specific boundary conditions is
proposed. The solved problem is the flow of heat in a one-dimensional (1D) solid whose …
