Abstract: Utilizing a recently developed analytical procedure, linear responses of the tallest non‐overflow monolith of Pine Flat Dam to Taft ground motion are presented for a range of properties for the reservoir bottom materials ...

Abstract: A two‐stage procedure was proposed in 1978 for the analysis phase of elastic design and safety evaluation of concrete gravity dams: (1) A simplified analysis procedure in which the response due only to the fundamental ...

Abstract: Simplified procedures are presented for the analysis of the fundamental vibration mode response of concrete gravity dam systems for two special cases: (a) Dams with reservoirs of impounded water supported on rigid foundation ...

Abstract: A companion paper presented simplified procedures for earthquake analysis of the fundamental mode response of concrete gravity dams including the separate effects of dam‐foundation rock interaction and dam‐water interaction ...

Abstract: A numerical procedure for computing the dynamic response of coupled fluid‐structure systems is developed and used to evaluate the effects of nonlinear behavior of the structure and fluid. The procedure includes cavitation ...
