Abstract

Many problems are linked with the long-term behavior of both earthdams and concrete dams.They range from hydraulic fracturing to alkali-silica reaction (ASR)and to repair work in concrete dams,from seismic behavior to secondary consolidation in earthdams.A common framework for the simulation of such systems is shown,based on the mechanics of multiphase porous media.The general model is particularized to specific situations and several examples are shown.
