Slopes near a dam body can be categorized into 4 groups, such as right and left abutment slopes, reservoir slopes, slopes along the access road and slopes along the relocated road. For each of the geological investigation, the design standards, the evaluation methods of safety and the maintenance methods, both abutment slopes in the four dams have different characteristics from the conventional cut slopes in that they can severely affect the dam safety. From this point of view this study compares and analyzes the geological investigation methods, the status of design and construction, evaluation method of safety, and monitoring & maintaining methods for four major dams in Korea, such as Soyanggang dam, 'Andong dam, Chungju dam and Boryong dam.

For safety evaluation of a rockfill dam, it is often necessary to investigate spatial distribution and dynamic characterization of weak zones such as fractures. For this purpose, both seismic and electric methods are adopted together in this research. The former employs the multichannel analysis of surface waves (MASW) method, and aims at the mapping of 2-D shear-wave velocity (Vs) profile along the dam axis that can be associated with dynamic properties of filled materials. The latter is carried out by DC- resistivity survey with a main purpose of mapping of spatial variations of physical properties of dam materials. Results from both methods are compared in their signature of anomalous zones. In addition, downhole seismic survey was carried out at three points within the seismic survey lines and results by downhole seismic survey are compared with the MASW results. We conclude that the MASW is an efficient method for dynamic characterization of dam-filling materials, and also that joint analyses of these two seemingly unrelated methods can lead to an effective safety evaluation of rock-fill dam.

Structural damage to an arch dam is often of major concern and must be evaluated for probable rehabilitation to ensure safe, regular, normal operation. This evaluation is crucial to prevent any catastrophic or failure consequences for the life time of the dam. If specific major damage such as a large crack occurs to the dam body, the assessments will be necessary to determine the current level of safety and predict the resistance of the structure to various future loading such as earthquakes, etc. This study investigates the behavior of an arch dam cracked due to water pressure. Safety factors (SFs), of shear and compressive tractions were calculated at the surfaces of the contraction joints and the cracks. The results indicated that for cracking with an extension depth of half the thickness of the dam body, for both cases of penetration and non-penetration of water load into the cracks, SFs only slightly reduces. However, in case of increasing the depth of crack extension into the entire thickness of the dam body, the friction angle of the cracked surface is crucial; however, if it reduces, the normal loading SFs of stresses and joints tractions reduce significantly.

Crack detection is an essential method to ensure the safety of dam concrete structures. Low-quality crack images of dam concrete structures limit the application of neural network methods in crack detection. This research proposes a modified attentional mechanism model to reduce the disturbance caused by uneven light, shadow, and water spots in crack images. Also, the focal loss function solves the small ratio of crack information. The dataset collects from the network, laboratory and actual inspection dataset of dam concrete structures. This research proposes a novel method for crack detection of dam concrete structures based on the U-Net neural network, namely AF-UNet. A mutual comparison of OTSU, Canny, region growing, DeepLab V3+, SegFormer, U-Net, and AF-UNet (proposed) verified the detection accuracy. A binocular camera detects cracks in the experimental scene. The smallest measurement width of the system is 0.27 mm. The potential goal is to achieve real-time detection and localization of cracks in dam concrete structures.

본 연구에서는 국내 최대의 콘크리트댐인 충주댐의 실제 현장 계측치를 대상으로 거동해석 및 안정성 평가를 실시하였고, 현재까지 관리되었던 제3기 판정의 적합성을 판단하였다. 계측에 의한 거동해석결과로부터, 충주댐의 안전성 및 제3기 관리판정의 적합성을 평가하면 다음과 같다. (1) 누수량은 시간이 경과함에 따라 동시에 측정치의 값이 감소한다. (2) 양압력은 시간이 경과함에 따라 일정치를 유지하여 안정하고 있다. (3) 댐체의 변형은 상, 하류의 경우 시간과 동시에 거의 일정한 값이 유지하면서 그 변화의 비율이 시간과 동시에 감소하며, 좌, 우안의 경우 시간에 따라 감소하고 있다. 상기의 경향으로부터 충주댐은 매우 안정한 거동을 나타내어, 안전관리상태는 제3기에 적합한 상태라고 판단된다.

In this study, comprehensive seismic performance analysis were performed for the concrete face rockfill dam(CFRD) designed seismic coefficient method(0. 10g). The static and pseudo-static FEM analysis, limited equilibrium method and dynamic FEM analysis were used for the dam safety analysis. The results of the seismic analysis were that the minimum factor of safety of down slope was 1.2 and horizontal displacement increased 8cm and vertical displacement increased 1.2cm at dam crest rather than those of static condition. The model dam did not show any serious tai lure in seismic stabi1ity for 0.13g. And much more research is still necessary in seismic safety of CFRD.

댐 유지관리 측면에서 계측기를 통해 실시간 댐 거동을 파악하고 있으나 노후 댐의 경우 댐 축조 시 설치한 계측기가 오작동하거나 작동되지 않는 경우도 빈번히 발생하고 있다. 1종 국가시설물인 댐은 정밀안전진단을 통해 주기적으로 댐의 상태를 파악하고 있으며, 정밀안전진단 시 댐체의 안정성 평가를 실시하고 있다. 일반적으로 댐 안정성평가 시 가장 큰 단면을 대표단면으로 적용해 2차원 수치해석으로 결론을 도출하고 있으나 최근 많은 연구자들이 3차원 수치해석 프로그램 기술 발달에 기인해 댐 형상, 주변지형 및 댐 하부지형 형상을 정확히 반영한 3차원 수치해석에 관한 연구를 수행하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 지진에 대한 댐 안정성 평가를 위해 지반공학 범용 FEM 해석 프로그램인 PLAXIS 3D를 이용하여 존별 형상을 모두 반영한 댐체의 지진 특성과 댐체를 사력존 하나로 가정한 경우, 댐체를 사력존 및 코어존으로 가정한 경우와 수치해석 결과를 비교 분석하여 존별 형상에 따른 지진파 영향 특성을 분석하고자 한다.

Investigation of the stability of arch dam abutments is one of the most important aspects in the analysis of this type of dams. To this end, the Bakhtiari dam, a doubly curved arch dam having six wedges at each of its abutments, is selected. The seismic safety of dam abutments is studied through time history analysis using the design-based earthquake (DBE) and maximum credible earthquake (MCE) hazard levels. Londe limit equilibrium method is used to calculate the stability of wedges in abutments. The thrust forces are obtained using ABAQUS, and stability of wedges is calculated using the code written within MATLAB. Effects of foundation flexibility, grout curtain performance, vertical component of earthquake, nonlinear behavior of materials, and geometrical nonlinearity on the safety factor of the abutments are scrutinized. The results show that the grout curtain performance is the main affecting factor on the stability of the abutments, while nonlinear behavior of the materials is the least affecting factor amongst others. Also, it is resulted that increasing number of the contraction joints can improve the seismic stability of dam. A cap is observed on the number of joints, above which the safety factor does not change incredibly.
