Probability of Failure for Concrete Gravity Dams for Sliding Failure (Civil Project)
Safety of dams can be evaluated based on the risk analysis methodologies that accounts for estimation of the risks associated to the dam-reservoir system. For this purpose it is important to Continue reading
Design of aerators for prevention of cavitation – The Höljes Dam (Civil Project)
Major cavitation damages can seriously endanger the stability of hydraulic structures, in worst case lead to dam failure. To remedy the effect of cavitation on spillway chutes the most common method today is Continue reading
FEM Modeling of Concrete Gravity Dams (Civil Project)
This project is an analysis of two different concrete gravity dams. One of the dams, the Baozhusi Hydropower Station, is a fully functional concrete gravity dam situated in the Sichuan province in the Peoples Republic of China. This dam reopened again after its Continue reading
