Probabilistic risk methods are becoming increasingly accepted as a means of carrying out risk-informed decision making regarding the design and operation policy of structures such as dams. Probabilistic risk calculations require the quantification of epi...

Real and effective monitoring data are crucial in assessing the structural safety of dams. Gross errors, resulting from manual mismeasurement, instrument failure, or other factors, can significantly impact the evaluation process. It is imperative to elim...

The dam-break water flow is a complex fluid motion, showing strong nonlinearity and stochasticity. In order to better study the characteristics of the dam burst flood, the smooth particle hydrodynamics (SPH) method was chosen to establish a two-dimension...

There are a large number of reservoir dams in China, of which embankment dams account for more than 90%, and public safety will be seriously endangered in case of dam failure. Overtopping is the leading cause of dam failure, and the existing research mai...

Dams are built for different purposes, but failure of a dam could result in extreme disasters such as floods. The Grand Ethiopian Renaissance Dam (GERD) was mainly built for power generation, but concerns about its safety, location and site conditions ha...

Dams are expensive technical constructions that ensure food production, sustain farmers? income, and cover a large percentage of urban water supply demands. However, the threat of a dam break flood, which can be extremely dangerous for the local society,...

The southwestern region of China is close to the Eurasian earthquake zone. Many engineering areas in southwestern China are affected by earthquakes and are close to the epicenter of earthquakes that occur in this region. During earthquakes, slopes with w...

The study of embankment breaching is not an easy practice, as it includes various parameters to meet the suitability of the design approach, especially when we consider it for the long term. Embankment breach studies generally include the prediction of d...

Slope stability is one of the key engineering problems in the whole lifetime of landfills. In this paper, combined with the wedge limit equilibrium analysis, a landfill stability analysis method based on the actual failure surface is proposed, and the mo...
