  • The Methods Used in Monitoring of Large Dams in Turkey
    ©2020 Published in 8th International Symposium on Innovative Technologies in Engineering and Science 23-25 October 2020 (ISITES2020 Bursa - Turkey) https://doi.org/10.33793/acperpro.03.01.51 The Methods Used in Monitoring of Large Dams in Turkey Haluk BALI1*, Salih ALCAY2 1 The General Directorate of State Hydraulic Works, 5. Regional Directorate, 56. Division Office, Kırıkkale, Turkey, 2 Necmettin Erbakan University, Engineering and Achitecture Faculty, Geomatics Engineering Department, Konya, Turkey. Abstract Turkey is a very rich country in terms of water resources. However, in order to use these resources efficiently, water must be stored safely. In this context, the best form of storage is the construction of dams. In our country, large dams, which are among the world's important dams, are being built. Although there are many advantages of large dams, the loss of life and property will be so great in case of a possible deformation or destruction. The fact that dams are under the influence of various forces, as well as being located in the earthquake zone of our country, necessitates continuous monitoring of our dams. Dams are generally monitored using geodetic methods and geotechnical devices. However, mostly details of these two methods are evaluated separately in dam monitoring. Evaluating the results of both methods together is very important for the comprehensive monitoring of the dam and the correct interpretation of possible deformations. In this study, large dams in our country and monitoring studies carried out by using geodetic and geotechnical methods in these dams are given in detail. Key words: Dam, Deformation Monitoring, Geodetic, Geotechnical 1.

    List of tallest dams in the world 1 List of tallest dams in the world This list is incomplete. This is a list of the tallest dams in the world over 135 m (443 ft) in height. Currently, the tallest dam in the world is the Jinping-I Dam, an arch dam in China at 305 m (1,001 ft) high. The tallest embankment dam is the 300 m (984 ft) high Nurek Dam in Tajikistan which is also the second tallest dam in the world. For gravity dams, the tallest is the 285 m (935 ft) high Grande Dixence Dam in Switzerland. When completed, a 335 m (1,099 ft) tall Rogun Dam also in Tajikistan could be the tallest, depending on the chosen design. Next in line is the 312 m (1,024 ft) Shuangjiangkou Dam currently under construction in China. Natural landslide dams are also quite competitive in height but not listed here. In particular, the highest natural dam, Usoi Dam, is higher than the highest existing man-made one. The Nurek Dam in Tajikistan. The Grande Dixence Dam in Switzerland. The Inguri Dam in Georgia.

  • Three Dimensional Nonlinear Seismic Effects of Epicenter Distance of Earthquake on Principal Stress Behaviour of Concrete Gravity Dams
    The 2020 World Congress on Advances in Civil, Environmental, & Materials Research (ACEM20) 25-28, August, 2020, GECE, Seoul, Korea Three Dimensional Nonlinear Seismic Effects of Epicenter Distance of Earthquake on Principal Stress Behaviour of Concrete Gravity Dams Memduh Karalar1), Murat Çavuşli2) 1) Department of Civil Engineering, Zonguldak Bulent Ecevit University, Zonguldak 67100, Turkey 2) Department of Civil Engineering, Zonguldak Bulent Ecevit University, Zonguldak 67100, Turkey 1 ) [email protected] 2) [email protected] ABSTRACT In this study, it is purposed to investigate 3D nonlinear seismic behaviors of concrete gravity (CG) dams considering various epicenter distances. For this aim, Boyabat CG dam that is one of the biggest concrete gravity dams in Turkey is selected as a numerical application. FLAC3D software based on finite difference method is used for modelling and analyzing of the dam. Drucker-Prager nonlinear material model is used for the concrete body and Mohr-Coulomb nonlinear material model is taken into account for the foundation. Free-field and quiet non-reflecting boundary conditions are utilized for the main surfaces of 3D model. Total 5 various epicenter distances of 1989 Loma Prieta earthquake are considered in 3D earthquake analyses and these distances are 5 km, 11 km, 24 km, 85 km and 93 km, respectively. According to 3D seismic results, principal stresses failures of the dam are evaluated in detail. It is clearly seen from this study that the nonlinear seismic behaviors of the CG dams change depending to epicenter distance of the earthquake. Introduction Recently, three dimensional (3D) nonlinear analyzing has obviously become widespread in the civil engineering and this practice has been widely used to assess the earthquake performance of concrete gravity (CG) dams (Wang et al.

  • Earthquake Behaviour of Concrete Gravity Dams Considering Various Interaction Conditions
    ©2018 Published in 2ND International Symposium on Natural Hazards and Disaster Management 04-06 MAY 2018 (ISHAD2018 Sakarya Turkey) Earthquake Behaviour of Concrete Gravity Dams Considering Various Interaction Conditions 1Murat Çavuşli and *2Murat Emre Kartal 1 Res. Assist., Bulent Ecevit University, Department of Civil Engineering, 67100, Zonguldak, TURKEY *2 Assoc. Prof., Izmir Demokrasi University, Engineering Faculty, 35140, İzmir, TURKEY Abstract : In this study, Boyabat dam, which is concrete gravity (CG) dam, located a highly seismic zone in Turkey was selected for numerical analyses and it was numerically modelled considering empty and full reservoir water conditions by finite element method. Seismic response of the selected CG dam was examined considering seven different dam–foundation interaction conditions. Each interaction conditions have different mechanical properties and different friction properties. In total, 14 different seismic analyses were performed to understand the effect of different interaction conditions on behaviour of the dam for various reservoir conditions. Two-dimensional fluid finite elements based on the Lagrangian approach was used to model the hydrodynamic pressure of the reservoir water. The acceleration records of 1999 Düzce earthquake (Mw 7.1) were used in all seismic analysis. According to the numerical solutions, the change of horizontal displacements (upstream-downstream direction) was evaluated for two-dimensional dam–reservoir–foundation interaction systems. It is clearly seen in this study that when the different interaction conditions are used between interaction surfaces of the dam, two dimensional linear behaviour of the concrete gravity dam clearly changes. According to the two dimensional linear analyses, as the friction between dam and foundation increases, the relative deformations decreased while the total deformations increased.
