Modeling the effect of downstream drain geometry on seepage through earth dams
This research investigates the effect of downstream drain’s geometry on seepage through homogeneous earth dams founded on an impervious foundation. A permeability tank experimental model and SEEP2D numerical model are used in the study. The dam’s failure in the case of no drain is experimentally obs...
