  • In the recent years, due to long-lasting heavy rainfall events, a large number of landslides have been observed in the mountainous area of the world. Such landslides can also form a dam as it blocks the course of a river, which may burst and cause a catastrophic flood. Numerical analysis of landslide dam formation is rarely available, while laboratory experimental studies often use assumed shape to analyze the landslide dam failure and flood hydraulics in downstream. In this study, both experimental and numerical studies have been carried out to investigate the formation of landslide dam. Two case laboratory experiments were conducted in two flumes simultaneously. The first flume (2.0 m 0.6 m 0.5 m) was set at $22^{\circ}$ and $27^{\circ}$ slope to generate the landslide using rainfall intensity of 70.0 mm/hr. On the other hand, the second flume (1.5 m 0.25 m 0.3 m) was set perpendicularly at the downstream end of the first flume to receive the landslide mass forming landslide dam. The formation of landslide dam was observed at $15^{\circ}$ slope of the second flume. The whole processes including the landslide initiation and movement of the landslide mass into the second channel was captured by three digital cameras. In numerical analysis, a two-dimensional (2D) seepage flow model, a 2D slope stability model (Spencer method) and a 2D landslide dam-geometry evaluation model were coupled as a single unit. This developed model can determine the landslide occurrence time, the failure mass and the geometry of landslide dam deposited in the second channel. The data obtained from numerical simulation results has good agreement with the experimental measurements.

  • 국내 저수지의 대부분 흙댐으로 되어있다. 흙댐은 건설비용이 저렴하고, 용이한 시공성을 가지고 있기 때문이다. 그러나 흙댐은 침투나 월류에 매우 취약하기 때문에, 과도한 홍수량이 발생하였을 경우 급격한 붕괴 가능성이 매우 높다. 급격한 붕괴는 급격한 홍수량 증가로 이어져, 하류 하천 또는 민가에 매우 큰 피해를 발생시킬 가능성이 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 흙댐 사면에 포설한 사석의 흙댐 붕괴 지연효과에 대해 실험연구를 수행하였다. 붕괴시간이 지연되면, 대피시간을 확보하여 인명 피해를 크게 줄일 수 있기 때문에 재난 대응 관점에서 큰 의미가 있다고 판단된다. 수리실험은 직선형 개수로에서 수행하였으며, 보호공 사석의 크기를 2가지로 결정하였다. 기존 선행 실험과는 달리 실험을 부정류로 수행하였으며 이를 통해 댐 내부의 수위 상승 변화 효과를 반영하였다. 대상댐은 도수터널에 설치된 가물막이 댐으로 결정하였다. 실험결과 수행한 실험조건에서 사석보호공이 있는 경우 사면의 붕괴를 방지할 수 있었고, 사석보호공이 없는 경우 사석의 입경 증가에 따라 붕괴 시간 지연 효과가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 이는 첨두 유출량 감소로 댐 하류부의 피해를 감소시키는 효과가 있을 것으로 판단된다. 또한 저수지 붕괴에 대한 비상대처계획(EAP) 수립 시 주요 참고자료로 활용될 수 있을 것이다.

  • Preserving reservoir safety has recognized to be important for the public where a vast majority of dams are located upstream of greatly populated cities and industrialized areas. Buckling, floatation and cavitation have caused failure in the spillway gates and conveyance features during past catastrophic events; showed their vulnerability and need for regular inspection along with reviewing design calculations to ensure the spillway meet current design standards. This paper investigates the hydraulic and structural consideration of dam's spillway by evaluating the data of Karkheh Dam's. Discharge capacity, flood routings and cavitation damage risk were main features for hydraulic considerations where hydrostatic and hydrodynamic forces and stability conditions were considered in structural considerations.

  • Structural design of the vertical displacements and shear strains in the earth fill (EF) dams has great importance in the structural engineering problems. Moreover, far fault earthquakes have significant seismic effects on seismic damage performance of EF dams like the near fault earthquakes. For this reason, three dimensional (3D) earthquake damage performance of Oroville dam is assessed considering different far-fault ground motions in this study. Oroville Dam was built in United States of America-California and its height is 234.7 m (770 ft.). 3D model of Oroville dam is modelled using FLAC3D software based on finite difference approach. In order to represent interaction condition between discrete surfaces, special interface elements are used between dam body and foundation. Non-reflecting seismic boundary conditions (free field and quiet) are defined to the main surfaces of the dam for the nonlinear seismic analyses. 6 different far-fault ground motions are taken into account for the full reservoir condition of Oroville dam. According to nonlinear seismic analysis results, the effects of far-fault ground motions on the nonlinear seismic settlement and shear strain behaviour of Oroville EF dam are determined and evaluated in detail. It is clearly seen that far-fault earthquakes have very significant seismic effects on the settlement-shear strain behaviour of EF dams and these earthquakes create vital important seismic damages on the swelling behaviour of dam body surface. Moreover, it is proposed that far-fault ground motions should not be ignored while modelling EF dams.

  • Three representative dam-break models, HEC-1, DAMBRK, and SMPDBK were analyzed respectively in their theories and then applied to the failure of Teton Dam for which some observed data exist. From the results of this study, it can be concluded that:(1)HEC-1, which uses the hydrologic routing method, produces stable solutions for almost all the cases that were tested in this study :(2)DAMBRK, which uses the dynamic routing method, is most accurate among the three models ;(3)SMPDBK, which uses the generalized dyanmic routing relationships, is most economical and easily applicable.

  • Recently, the seismic stability evaluation of concrete gravity dams is raised due to the failure of dams occurred by the Izmit, Turkey and JiJi, Taiwan earthquake in 1999. Dams failure may incur loss of life and properties around the dam as well as damage to dam structure itself. Recently, there has been growing much concerns about "earthquake - resistance" or "seismic safety" of existing concrete gravity dams designed before current seismic design provisions were implemented. This research develops three evaluation levels for seismic stability of concrete gravity dams on the basis of the evaluation method of seismic stability of concrete gravity dams in U.S.A., Japan, Canada, and etc. Level 1 is a preliminary evaluation which is for purpose of screening. Level 2 is a pseudo-static evaluation on the basis of the seismic intensity method. And level 3 is a detail evaluation by the dynamic analysis. Evaluation results on existing concrete gravity dams on operation showed good seismic performance under designed artificial earthquake(KHC earthquake).

  • Design and management of concrete slabs in concrete-faced rock-fill dams are crucial issues for stability and overall dam safety since cracks in the concrete face induced by stress, shrinkage, and deterioration can cause severe leakage from the reservoir into the dam. Especially, the increase of dam height to a certain level to enhance the storage capacity and to improve hydraulic stability can lead to undesirable deformation behavior and stress distribution in the existing dam body and in the concrete slabs. In such conditions, simulation of a concrete slab with a numerical method should involve the use of an interface element because the behavior of the concrete slab does not follow the behavior of the dam body when the dam body settles due to the increase of dam height. However, the interfacial properties between the dam body and the concrete slab have yet to be clearly defined. In this study, construction sequence of a 125 m high CFRD in South Korea is simulated with commercial FDM software. The proper interfacial properties of the concrete slab are estimated based on a comparison to monitored vertical displacement history obtained from the concrete slab. Possibility of shear strength failure under the critical condition is investigated based on the simplified model. Results present the significance of the interfacial properties of the concrete slab.

  • 본 연구에서는 미 공병단의 내부 침식 평가 도구를 이용하여 서로 다른 결함 이력을 가진 국내 3개소의 필댐에 대해 내부 침식에 의한 지반공학적 파괴 시나리오의 시스템 응답 확률을 분석하였다. 분석된 확률을 국외 사례에서 조사된 시스템 응답 확률의 범위 및 국내 댐의 과거 사고 통계와 비교 분석하였다. 연구 대상 댐에서 구조물 인접부의 내부 침식 파괴에 대한 시스템 응답 확률은 최대 $10^{-5}$ 수준으로 다른 파괴 시나리오에 대한 값보다 상대적으로 매우 높게 평가되었으며, 실제 국내에서도 구조물 인접부에서 가장 빈번하게 내부 침식 사고가 발생하였다. 하지만 국외에서는 빈번하게 발생하는 기초 지반을 통한 내부 침식과 관련된 파괴 시나리오의 지반공학적 시스템 응답 확률은 상당히 낮은 수준의 $10^{-7}$으로 평가되었다. 이는 실제 국내에서 기초 지반을 통한 내부 침식으로 인해 발생한 댐 파괴 사례가 거의 전무하다는 사실과 유사한 결과이다.

  • In the present work, a new global damage index is proposed for the seismic performance and failure analysis of concrete gravity dams. Unlike the existing indices of concrete structures, this index doesn't need scaling with an ultimate or an upper value. For this purpose, the Beni-Haroun dam in north-eastern Algeria, is considered as a case study, for which an average seismic capacity curve is first evaluated by performing several incremental dynamic analyses. The seismic performance point of the dam is then determined using the N2 method, considering multiple modes and taking into account the stiffness degradation. The seismic demand is obtained from the design spectrum of the Algerian seismic regulations. A series of recorded and artificial accelerograms are used as dynamic loads to evaluate the nonlinear responses of the dam. The nonlinear behaviour of the concrete mass is modelled by using continuum damage mechanics, where material damage is represented by a scalar field damage variable. This modelling, which is suitable for cyclic loading, uses only a single damage parameter to describe the stiffness degradation of the concrete. The hydrodynamic and the sediment pressures are included in the analyses. The obtained results show that the proposed damage index faithfully describes the successive brittle failures of the dam which increase with increasing applied ground accelerations. It is found that minor damage can occur for ground accelerations less than 0.3 g, and complete failure can be caused by accelerations greater than 0.45 g.
