The crack resistance and durability of face slab concrete are two important factors
determining the normal operation and safety of concrete face rockfill dams (CFRDs). This …

Enhancing cracking resistance of face slab concrete is essential for the structural integrity
and normal operation of concrete-faced rockfill dams (CFRDs). In this study, the effects of …

Face slab concrete suffers from serious frost damage in the cold regions in China. How to
improve the frost resistance of face slab concrete in cold regions is one of the important …

The concrete-face rockfill dam (CFRD) has become a preferred dam type, but its design
remains largely based on past experiences. Understanding the behaviour of CFRDs is …

The crack resistance of face slab concretes to various shrinkages is crucial for the structural
integrity and the normal operation of concrete-faced rockfill dams (CFRDs). In this work, the …

Concrete face rockfill dams (CFRDs) are becoming a widely used type of rockfill dam in
China. In many cases, the design and construction of CFRDs are based primarily on …

The spatial variability of rockfill properties is the key factor affecting stochastic seismic
responses. Herein, an efficient probabilistic analysis method for stochastic seismic analysis …

In this study, the behavior of Gavoshan dam was evaluated during construction and the first
impounding. A two-dimensional (2D) numerical analysis was conducted based on a finite …

In this paper, a plastic-damage model for concrete was coupled with the generalized plastic
model for rockfill materials and applied to the two-dimensional analysis of a concrete faced …

Determining the failure probabilities of high concrete-faced rockfill dams (CFRDs) is an
important component of seismic performance assessment, considering the randomness of …
