Failure of Concrete-Face Sand-Gravel Dam Due to Water Flow Overtops
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Based on field investigations and model tests on Gouhou concrete-face sand-gravel dam (CFSGD) breach case, a simplified numerical model for CFSGD breach was developed. The two major highlights of the model are the adoption ...
New Empirical Model for Breaching of Earth-Rock Dams
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Empirical models are widely used in dam risk analysis because they can estimate the dam breach parameters easily, which enables a quantitative analysis of the breach process to be conducted. In this study, by applying a ...
Numerical Modeling of Overtopping-Induced Breach of Landslide Dams
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Landslide dams have a high risk of overtopping failure compared to that of artificial dams. In this study, based on dam morphological characteristics, field investigations, and model tests, a numerical calculation method ...
