    • An empirical comparison of machine learning techniques for dam behaviour modelling 

      Salazar González, Fernando; Toledo Municio, Miguel Ángel; Oñate Ibáñez de Navarra, Eugenio; Morán Moya, Rafael (2015-09)
      Article
      Open Access
      Predictive models are essential in dam safety assessment. Both deterministic and statistical models applied in the day-to-day practice have demonstrated to be useful, although they show relevant limitations at the same ...
    • Análisis experimental y numérico del oleaje producido por la inestabilidad de laderas de embalses 

      Alves, Ricardo; Morán, Rafael; Toledo Municio, Miguel Ángel; Irazábal González, Joaquín; Salazar González, Fernando; Larese De Tetto, Antonia (2015)
      Conference report
      Open Access
      El fenómeno del oleaje causado por deslizamientos de laderas de embalse un escenario formado por dos procesos, uno de tipo geomecánico y otro, hidrodinámico. El primero está relacionado con el origen de la inestabilidad ...
    • Applications of numerical methods in design and evaluation of overtopping protection systems 

      Salazar González, Fernando; San Mauro Saiz, Javier; Larese De Tetto, Antonia; Irazábal González, Joaquín; Morán Moya, Rafael; Oñate Ibáñez de Navarra, Eugenio; Toledo Municio, Miguel Ángel (Colorado State University, 2016)
      Conference lecture

      The development of overtopping protection systems often requires detailed analyses of complex physical phenomena. This hinders the comprehensive knowledge of their behavior, and therefore the development of suitable design ...
    • Data-based models for the prediction of dam behaviour: a review and some methodological considerations 

      Salazar González, Fernando; Morán Moya, Rafael; Toledo Municio, Miguel Ángel; Oñate Ibáñez de Navarra, Eugenio (2017-01)
      Article
      Open Access
      Predictive models are an important element in dam safety analysis. They provide an estimate of the dam response faced with a given load combination, which can be compared with the actual measurements to draw conclusions ...
    • Early detection of anomalies in dam performance: a methodology based on boosted regression trees 

      Salazar González, Fernando; Toledo Municio, Miguel Ángel; González Lopez, Jose Manuel; Oñate Ibáñez de Navarra, Eugenio (2017-11)
      Article
      Open Access
      The advances in information and communication technologies led to a general trend towards the availability of more detailed information on dam behaviour. This allows applying advanced data-based algorithms in its analysis, ...
    • Estudios sobre el comportamiento de presas de escollera ante vertidos por coronación 

      Larese De Tetto, Antonia; Lechuga García, Cristina; Lara Dominguez, Ángel; Berga Cano, Mª Isabel; Viña Gómez, Mª del Pilar; Toledo Municio, Miguel Ángel; Morán Moya, Rafael; Campos, Hibber; García Palacio, Jaime (2010)

      Como consecuencia del desarrollo de un Proyecto de Investigación, el CEDEX, la Universidad Politécnica de Madrid y el CIMNE han trabajado conjuntamente en el desarrollo de un método para el estudio del proceso de rotura ...
    • Hydraulic and stability analysis of the supporting layer of wedge-shaped blocks 

      San Mauro Saiz, Javier; Larese De Tetto, Antonia; Salazar González, Fernando; Irazábal González, Joaquín; Morán Moya, Rafael; Toledo Municio, Miguel Ángel (Colorado State University, 2016)
      Conference lecture

      Wedge shaped blocks (WSB) are attracting increasing attention as protection against overtopping for earth and rock-fill dams. However, there are limited examples of application and some aspects of the technology merit ...
    • Interpretation of dam deformation and leakage with boosted regression trees 

      Salazar González, Fernando; Toledo Municio, Miguel Ángel; Oñate Ibáñez de Navarra, Eugenio; Suárez Arroyo, Benjamín (2016-07)
      Article
      Open Access
      Predictive models are essential in dam safety assessment. They have been traditionally based on simple statistical tools such as the hydrostatic-season-time (HST) model. These tools are well known to have limitations in ...
    • Metodología de análisis de comportamiento de presas de escollera frente a un sobrevertido 

      Larese De Tetto, Antonia; Rossi, Riccardo; Oñate Ibáñez de Navarra, Eugenio; Toledo Municio, Miguel Ángel (2010)
      Conference report
      Restricted access - publisher's policy
      Con el objetivo de llegar a un mejor conocimiento del principio del proceso de rotura de las presas de material suelto y obtener una herramienta que permita un análisis más riguroso de este fenómeno, se está desarrollando ...
    • Numerical and experimental study of overtopping and failure of rockfill dams 

      Larese De Tetto, Antonia; Rossi, Riccardo; Oñate Ibáñez de Navarra, Eugenio; Toledo Municio, Miguel Ángel; Morán Moya, Rafael; Campos, Hibber (2015-08)
      Article
      Restricted access - publisher's policy
      This paper aims to present and validate a numerical technique for the simulation of the overtopping and onset of failure in rockfill dams due to mass sliding. This goal is achieved by coupling a fluid dynamic model for the ...
    • Physical and numerical modelization of the behavior of rockfi ll dams during overtopping scenarios 

      Larese De Tetto, Antonia; Rossi, Riccardo; Oñate Ibáñez de Navarra, Eugenio; Toledo Municio, Miguel Ángel (CRC Press, 2011)
      Conference report
      Restricted access - publisher's policy
      In recent years the technology on embankments dams has developed sensibly due to the advances in soil mechanic, and in all related sciences. Nevertheless their vulnerability to overtopping is still an open theme of discussion. ...
