The geometry of a landslide dam is one of the most important factors influencing its
breaching process. Understanding how geometric parameters affect breaching is crucial for …

Assessing the overtop** risk has become a necessity in face of ever-changing, extreme
weather conditions. This study proposed a novel probabilistic framework to evaluate the …

Recently, the use of heat as a tracer to evaluate the process of leakage in embankment
dams has attracted wide attention. A more accurate flow-heat coupling model of …

This study conducted a laboratory test and two-dimensional numerical simulation on
seepage heat monitoring of a core rockfill dam. A fully automatic laboratory test system for …

Dike construction has been widely used because of its potential to protect people and
properties from overtop** flows. Water levels may exceed a dike crest and cause …

There has been little study on the impact of bottom slope on dam break wave propagating
along a triangular wet channel. In this study, laboratory experiments are conducted in a …

Tailings dams differ from conventional water‐retaining dams in design, materials retained
behind the dam and used in construction of the dam, and the inclination of the upstream face …

Failure of dams and dikes often leads to devastating consequences in protected areas.
Numerical models are instrumental tools to assess flood risk and guide emergency …
