A Fracture Model for Dynamic Sliding Safety Evaluation of a Concrete Dam Subjected to Seismic Excitation
The Sliding Safety Factor (SSF) is a crucial criterion for the sliding stability evaluation of concrete dam structures. A concrete gravity dam subjected to strong earthquakes undergoes progressive fractures, in addition to pre-existing fractures, at the dam–foundation interface, which causes a reduc...
