It is of great significance to identify the spatiotemporal stress distribution characteristics to ensure the safety of a super-high arch dam during the initial operation stage. Taking the 285.5 m-high Xiluodu Dam as an example, the spatiotemporal distrib...

In response to the challenge of limited model availability for predicting the lifespan of super-high arch dams, a hybrid model named EMD-PSO-GPR (EPR) is proposed in this study. The EPR model leverages Empirical Mode Decomposition (EMD), Gaussian Process...

The 300 m-level high arch dams built in China have different degrees of valley-narrowing deformation in the initial impoundment. This unexpected phenomenon may increase the long-term safety risk of high arch dams. There are several explanations for the v...

Dam deformation monitoring can directly identify the safe operation state of a dam in advance, which plays an important role in dam safety management. Three-dimensional (3D) terrestrial laser scanning technology is widely used in the field of deformation...

Dams located in cold areas are subjected to large seasonal temperature variations and many concrete dams have cracked as a result. In the 14th International Commission on Large Dams (ICOLD) Benchmark Workshop, a case study was presented where contributor...

According to the results of a dynamic prototype test for the surface outlet radial gate on the Jinping high arch dam during the flood discharging process, a novel cause of vibration fundamentally different from the traditional causes of flow-induced radi...

Different numerical models have been proposed for seismic analysis of concrete dams by taking into account the nonlinear behavior of concrete and joints; interaction between the dam, foundation, and reservoir; and other seismic hazard considerations. Les...

Shape optimization of single-curvature arch dams using the finite element method (FEM) is often computationally expensive. To reduce the computational burden, this study introduces a new optimization method, combining a genetic algorithm with a sequentia...

The purpose of this joint contribution is to study the maximum dynamic load concrete dams can withstand. The so-called ?dynamic capacity functions? for these infrastructures seems now technically and commercially feasible thanks to the modern finite elem...
