Many problems are linked with the long term behaviour of dams, both earth-dams and concrete dams. They range from hydraulic fracturing to alkali-silica reaction and to repair work in concrete dams, from seismic behaviour to secondary consolidation in earth-dams. A common framework for simulation of such systems is shown, based on the mechanics of multiphase porous media. The general model is particularized to specific situations and several examples are shown.

Abstract
Many problems are linked with the long term behaviour of dams, both earth-dams and concrete dams. They range from hydraulic fracturing to alkali-silica reaction and to repair work in concrete dams, from seismic behaviour to secondary consolidation in earth-dams. A common framework for simulation of such systems is shown, based on the mechanics of multiphase porous media. The general model is particularized to specific situations and several examples are shown.File in questo prodotto:
