Abstract:
Dynamic response of dams interacting both with reservoir and foundation is a complex problem in time domain. To study the effects of reservoir and foundation on the response of dams under two-dimensional (2D) conditions, several numerical methods have been developed in the past few decades such as finite element method and the boundary element method. The boundary element method has been successfully applied to the dam dynamics (Humar and Jablonski (1988); Kucukarslan, (2004))
