Abstract: The ambient temperature effect in the foundation seepage of a concrete dam is examined. The variation of permeability in the foundation of the dam due to high or low temperatures and the variation of the effectiveness of ...

Abstract: Polynomial regression to forecast earth dam piezometer levels gives a quadratic expression of the piezometer data variation versus reservoir level, which indicates a hysteresis of the piezometer measurements at mid‐reservoir ...

Abstract: Steady‐state flow through an earth dam with an impervious core and a cutoff extended various depths into an alluvial foundation was examined for dependance on the permeability ratio of the foundation and depth of the cutoff. ...

Abstract: High-voltage transmission lines can pose an environmental problem, especially in countries where the electricity production is at a distance from the demand location. Planning, construction, and operation of high voltage ...
