Nonlinear Dynamic Analysis of Earth and Rockfill Dams Using the Finite Difference Method Considering the Effect of Vertical Earthquake Component, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Haeri, Mohsen (Supervisor)
Abstract
Earth and rockfill dams are enormous three-dimensional structures constructed from earth and rockfill materials. They are mainly built for water supply, agricultural land irrigation, electricity generation, and flood control. Earthquake is one of the most significant natural hazards affecting the stability of these dams. Nowadays, with the development of computers and software, the seismic behavior of most dams are assessed by dynamic analysis. In a considerable part of technical literature, dynamic analysis of earth and rockfill dams have been performed by applying only the horizontal component of the earthquakes, and the effects of vertical component of the earthquakes have often been...
