The consideratiOn of the dam-foundation-reservoir interaction is extremely important for estimating the seismic response of concrete gravity dams. Moreover, nonlinear analysis may be required for determining the possible risk associated with dams. In order to address these issues, DSI recently published the "Guidelines for Seismic Design of Concrete Dams". Authors who have contributed to the preparation of this document provide a perspective on the seismic safety/design of concrete dams and structural analysis methods along with a set of illustrative solutions. The study presented herein provides important results on the necessity of conducting two and three dimensional seismic analysis, the use of nonlinear analyses techniques and the important factors that affect the seismic response of the concrete gravity dams.

Comparison of the Overlapping Lattice and the Finite Element Approaches for the Prediction of the Collapse State of Concrete Gravity Dams
Soysal Albostan, Berat Feyza; Arıcı, Yalın; Binici, Barış; Tuncay, Kağan (2017-10-13)
Estimating the collapse limit state of concrete gravity dams within the framework of performance based design is challenging due to the uncertainty in modelling the response of these systems and the strong dependence of the behavior on the ground motion. In this context, the purpose of the study is to investigate the prediction capability of numerical tools in determining the collapse state of concrete gravity dams. The first tool used to this end is the classical finite element method with the smeared crac...
Evaluation of Motion Selection and Scaling for the Nonlinear Seismic Analysis of Concrete Gravity Dams
Soysal, Berat Feyza; Ay, Bekir Özer; Arıcı, Yalın (null; 2017-10-13)
The selection and scaling of the ground motions is usually the most effective factor determining the results of the safety assessment for concrete gravity dams. The guidelines for the nonlinear transient analyses of buildings, such as the one presented in ASCE/SEI-7-10, are generally applied to these structures. While these procedures are well-studied for the moment frames, their effectiveness and consistency has not been studied for gravity dam structures. The selection and scaling of the ground motions fo...
Seismic testing of a scaled roller-compacted-concrete gravity dam
Gharibdoust, Ali; Binici, Barış; Department of Civil Engineering (2016)
Within the last half-century, seismic response analysis of concrete gravity dams has been extensively studied. Studies reveal that two types of failure modes prevail in the form of dam body cracking or base slide. The literature lacks the conditions that clearly differentiate the two failure types. In this context a state of the art single degree of freedom pseudo-dynamic testing was developed to assess the gravity dam response on smooth foundation interface. Three different hazard levels of earthquake name...
Overlapping Lattice Simulation of Concrete Gravity Dam Collapse Simulations
SOYSAL, BERAT FEYZA; Aydın, Beyazıt Bestami; Tuncay, Kağan; Arıcı, Yalın; Binici, Barış (2017-09-01)
Estimating the collapse limit state of concrete gravity dams within the framework of performance based design is challenging due to the uncertainty in modelling the response of these systems and the strong dependence of the behavior on the ground motion. The purpose of the study is to investigate the seismic expected damage levels by using the overlapping lattice modeling (OLM) approach with incremental dynamic analysis (IDA) for two representative dam monoliths. OLM employs pin connected bar elements exten...
Simulation of damage propagation on massiveconcrete structures, the overlapping lattice model v.s.The finite element approach
Soysal, Berat Feyza; Arıcı, Yalın; Binici, Barış; Tuncay, Kağan (2017-10-11)
The increase in the computational power enables the performance based assessment of very large structures like concrete gravity dams. These assessments are usually carried out with the traditional finite element tools. The continuum based formulation of these analyses in the absence of costly re-meshing operations cast doubt on the performance assessment of such massive plain concrete structures given the primary output assessed for these analyses should be the crack propagation and opening on the dam body....
