Advanced numerical techniques for modeling tensile crack propagation in gravity dams
(Laboratório Nacional de Engenharia Civil, 2015)
Text en actes de congrés
Accés obertCracks propagating deep inside gravity dams can seriously affect their structural safety. Due to the potential catastrophic scenarios associated to the collapse of large concrete dams, it is a fundamental issue to ... -
Foundation of a gravity dam on layered soft rock: shear strength of bedding planes in laboratory and large “in situ” tests
(IOS Press, 2011)
Text en actes de congrés
Accés restringit per política de l'editorialA 100 m high gravity dam (Castrovido dam, Burgos, Spain) is founded on a soft Weald red siltstone with interbedded sandstone strata. Dam stability is essentially controlled by the available shear strength of sedimentation ... -
Modeling tensile crack propagation in concrete gravity dams via crack-path-field and strain injection techniques
(2016-03)
Article
Accés obertThis work investigates tensile crack propagation in concrete gravity dams by using some recently developed numerical techniques (crack-path field and strain injection techniques). The work carefully addresses aspects related ... -
Structural assessment of gravity dams by means of a semi-discrete approach
(Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya. CIMNE, 2019)
Article
Accés obertA new numerical model for the structural assessment of gravity dams by means of a semidiscrete approach is proposed. Gravity dams are massive structures, which their stability depends on the gravity loads applied into the ...
