Seismic safety evaluation of concrete dams a nonlinear behavioral approach

The consequences of a large dam failing can be disastrous. Based on a nonlinear approach, this title allows engineers to build models that account for nonlinear phenomena such as vertical joint slippage, cracks, and cavitation. It includes nonlinear fracture of dam-water-foundation interaction syste...
