  • Technical Note Gypsum Dissolution Effects on The
    TECHNICAL NOTE GYPSUM DISSOLUTION EFFECTS ON THE PERFORMANCE OF A LARGE DAM M. Kiyani*, J. Sadrekarimi and B. Fakhri Department of Civil Engineering, University of Tabriz Postal Code 5166616471, Tabriz, Iran [email protected] – [email protected] – [email protected] *Corresponding Author (Received: March 2, 2007 – Accepted in Revised Form: January 30, 2008) Abstract Upper Gotvand dam is constructed on the Karun River located in the south west of Iran. In this paper, 2D and 3D models of the dam together with the foundation and abutments were constructed and several seepage analyses were carried out. Then the gypsum veins scattered throughout the foundation ground and also the seepage pattern were included in the models, hence the dissolution law of gypsum, was analyzed. It was disclosed that, the discharge fluxes obtained from 2D and 3D analyses are not similar and the discharge flux in 3D model is about 4 times the size of 2D model. Also, the 3D model localizes the phreatic surface some what higher than the 2D model does. This means that the 2D model estimates lower pore water pressure pattern in comparison with the 3D model. These may be attributed to the fact that with 2D model the lateral components of vectors of seepage velocity are ignored. In spite of the fact that the grout curtain is designed to be some 170 meters deep, however, complete dissolving of gypsum will severely increase the discharge flux through the foundation ground.

  • Invitation from Chairman of O President of INACOLD Tion From
    Invitation from Chairman of Organizing Committee and President of INACOLD Dear ICOLD Members, On behalf of The Indonesian National Committee on Large Dams (INACOLD). I would like to extend our invitation to participate in the 82nd Annual Meeting of ICOLD. The event will take place in Bali on 2-6 June 2014 at Bali Nusa Dua Convention Center (BNDCC). Along with the history of ICOLD, Indonesia has been recorded as member country of this world prestigious organization. For Indonesia, this is the second time we have been entrusted to host such an important event of ICOLD. The first one was in Jakarta in 1986. I believe that through this important event, we will be able to show you the whole set of our experience in implementing the country's development and management in large dams in particular and in the water resources development in general. The selection of Bali as the venue of the meeting is not just because of its reputation as a tourist destination, but more than that, it has proven record of hosting various kinds of international events. It is also an opportunity to see boundless variety of unique sceneries as well as countless traditional and cultural heritages. Our Social programs are designed to provide you with unique opportunities to taste and feel the best of Bali's hospitality and its unique culture, through various exciting and full-filled activities held before, during and after the event. To complement these, the distinct culturally rich province offers an extensive range of hotels, exquisite cuisines, fascinating sceneries, a genuinely friendly and charming people practicing an authentic ancient heritage culture and almost unlimited recreational and cultural options.

  • Active Faulting at the Gotvand Dam Site Based on Seismic and Geotechnical Data
    00548-GH 7th International Conference on Seismology & Earthquake Engineering 18-21- May 2015 ACTIVE FAULTING AT THE GOTVAND DAM SITE BASED ON SEISMIC AND GEOTECHNICAL DATA Arash BARJASTEH Dr., Khuzestan Water & Power Authority (KWPA), Ahvaz, Iran [email protected] Keywords: Active Faulting, Geotechnical Properties, Seismic Data, Pir-Ahmad Fault, Gotvand Dam Active faulting and subsequent movements in dam foundations can cause structural distortions. Such movements may manifest as rock failures, crushing and dislocations that affect geotechnical properties of dam sites. Regarding to dam safety issues, faults with surface breaking and potential block movements are the main point of interest (Wieland, 2009) and accordingly should carefully be studied, especially on the eld. The Upper Gotvand dam is the highest rock ll dam with clay core in Iran. This dam is the last one of cascading dams which has been constructed over Karun River in the southwest of Khuzestan Province as the largest river of the country. The dam is 182 m high with a crest length of 750 m and has a reservoir volume of 4.5 billion m³. It was planned to produce 4250 million KWH electrical energy per year. Flood control, water regulation and tourist attraction are some of its supposed targets. Its location in the Zagros active belt as the most active seismotectonic zone of the country had some problematic effects on it including stability of the abutments and seepage potential through the foundation and abutments. The dam is underlain by the conglomeratic Bakhtiari Formation overlying the sandstones of Agha Jari Formation. Besides, due to exposure of a unique salt piercement of evaporitic Gachsaran Formation about three km upstream the dam body, seepage through the left bank of the reservoir can be crucial (Barjasteh, 2012).

Neotectonics related landslide of Ambal salt piercement within the Upper Gotvand dam reservoir, Iran Arash Barjasteh, Ph.D, Noorali Damough, Mohammad Reza Hataf, Mehdi Badiefar Dam and Power Plant Development, Khuzestan Water and Power Authority (KWPA),Iran, [email protected] ABSTRACT: The Upper Gotvand dam is the highest rock-fill dam of Iran with a clay core and was constructed over the longest and biggest river of the country, Karun river, in Khuzestan Province. It is located in the Zagros Active Fold Belt with the unique exposure of salt piercement in its reservoir known as Ambal salt pillow or ridge. The occurrence of this salt piercement imposed some problems to the project including subsidence and land sliding of highly soluble layers within the dam reservoir. The piercement is composed of Gachsaran Formation of Oilgo-Miocene Age with dominant salt, gypsum and marly layers. Most of the formation exposures in the study area are fault related. The region is affected by neotectonic faulting in such a way that Ambal piercement is aligned with an N-S basement lineament. Based on a two year field observation and monitoring, a gradual and continuous sliding is occurring that is intensified by ground water circulation through evaporite karstic sinkholes and fracture systems.
