Modelling of arch dam foundation failure scenarios - case studies of Baixo Sabor and Alto Ceira dams

In concrete arch dam foundations, potential failure mechanisms are typically defined by natural rock discontinuities or the concrete-rock interface. Discrete element models are particularly adequate for the safety assessment of these failure scenarios, given their ability to represent the geologic s...
