Dam Engineering

<p>•Focuses on the various aspects of dam engineering design and analysis. In-depth coverage of the use of clay-gravel mixtures as impervious core materials in rock fill dams including considerations for their physical properties and behavior.</p><p>•Describes the numerical simulation approach to evaluate the stability of existing embankment dams under different loading conditions and explores the space-time finite element method for seismic analysis of concrete dams.</p><p>•Focuses the long-term behavior of coarse-grained rock fill materials and their constitutive modeling and the state-dependent constitutive model for unsaturated rock fill materials.</p><p>•Highlights the probabilistic slope stability analysis for embankment dams including the incorporation of uncertainties and the earth-rock dams' breach modeling including the development of breach parameters and breach hydrodynamics.</p><p>•This is a useful resource for dam engineers researchers and students interested in the various aspects of dam design construction and analysis.</p>
