  • Geological Considerations in Dams Failure Teodora Barbuntoiu A
    Geotechnical Hazards | Geological Considerations in Dams Failure Teodora Barbuntoiu A Thesis in the Field of GeoEngineering For the Degree of Bachelor of Applied Earth Science Supervisors: Dr.Ir. W. Broere Dr.Ir. D.J.M. Ngan-Tillard Delft University of Technology July 2019 Teodora Barbuntoiu | Geological considerations in dams failure | AESB3400 Bachelor Thesis Abstract Dams and reservoirs pose safety concerns to society worldwide. In case of a disaster, the water impounded in the reservoir escapes and destroys everything in its path. Reasons for failure range from geology, hydrology and seismicity, to design problems, lack of maintenance and poor field investigation. Prior cases show that various dams gave away mainly due to geological causes, so there is a particular interest to see how the local terrain features could influence the longevity of the structure. Three historical case studies are discussed in order to emphasize the impact of geology regarding dam failure. The Saint Francis Dam is a prime example of poor site investigation, where the lack of knowledge on the foundation rock led to the rupture of the gravity dam. The Malpasset Dam gave away predominantly due to underestimated effects of the uplift, nevertheless, the geologists were unaware of an active fault system and the mechanical properties of the rock mass. The Baldwin Hills Reservoir comes with a more thorough site investigation, yet still, due to earth movements, the water from the reservoir infiltrated through the embankment. Therefore, geological features at the site need to be included in the design options of the dam in order to ensure a safe, feasible and economical project.

  • Adaptive Finite Volume Methods with Well-Balanced Riemann Solvers For
    INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL FOR NUMERICAL METHODS IN FLUIDS Int. J. Numer. Meth. Fluids (2010) Published online in Wiley InterScience (www.interscience.wiley.com). DOI: 10.1002/fld.2298 Adaptive finite volume methods with well-balanced Riemann solvers for modeling floods in rugged terrain: Application to the Malpasset dam-break flood (France, 1959)‡ D. L. George∗,† Cascades Volcano Observatory, U.S. Geological Survey, 1300 SE Cardinal Ct., Bldg. 10, Vancouver, WA 98683, U.S.A. SUMMARY The simulation of advancing flood waves over rugged topography, by solving the shallow-water equations with well-balanced high-resolution finite volume methods and block-structured dynamic adaptive mesh refinement (AMR), is described and validated in this paper. The efficiency of block-structured AMR makes large-scale problems tractable, and allows the use of accurate and stable methods developed for solving general hyperbolic problems on quadrilateral grids. Features indicative of flooding in rugged terrain, such as advancing wet–dry fronts and non-stationary steady states due to balanced source terms from variable topography, present unique challenges and require modifications such as special Riemann solvers. A well- balanced Riemann solver for inundation and general (non-stationary) flow over topography is tested in this context. The difficulties of modeling floods in rugged terrain, and the rationale for and efficacy of using AMR and well-balanced methods, are presented. The algorithms are validated by simulating the Malpasset dam-break flood (France, 1959), which has served as a benchmark problem previously. Historical field data, laboratory model data and other numerical simulation results (computed on static fitted meshes) are shown for comparison.

  • CICERO LASSITER “No Problem Can Be Solved with the Same Level of Consciousness That Created It.” -Albert Einstein
    CICERO LASSITER “No problem can be solved with the same level of consciousness that created it.” -Albert Einstein Cicero Lassiter, the younger of the two sons of James Sr. and Viola Lassiter, followed a very different path to his induction into the Freedom Educational Foundation Hall of Fame. Two years younger than his brother Junior, Lassiter was born in 1949 in Americus, Georgia before moving to Aliquippa as a toddler and eventually settling in Freedom. Athletics were an important part of Lassiter’s high school years, and he displayed his talents as a member of the track and field team and the basketball team. He held Freedom’s record for the high jump of 6’3 1/4”, which stood for 40 years. As a senior he qualified for the PIAA State Track Meet at Penn State University. During the week prior to the State Meet, Lassiter suffered a neck injury while playing a pickup basketball game at the Eighth Street Playground but still competed in the State Meet and managed an eighth place finish. Lassiter made a name for himself as a premier basketball player during his junior year. He was a unanimous coaches’ choice as first team All-Section of the Mid-Western Athletic Conference and was the conference’s number one scorer with 347points. In 1968 he broke the Freedom’s single season scoring record with 522 points, besting Bill Hewko’s 507 points scored in 1956. Lassiter’s record has since been broken. The WPIAL named him to its 1968 All-Star Team; he was nominated for the Pittsburgh Dapper Dan Round Ball Classic; and the Pittsburgh Press nominated him as a basketball MVP candidate.

A Multi-faceted Approach to Geotechnical Engineering Education M.B. Jaksa University of Adelaide, Australia ABSTRACT: Central to effective student learning is engagement. This paper presents a student-centred ap- proach to enhance engagement and, hence, improve learning outcomes in geo-engineering education. The ap- proach incorporates a variety of facets or tools, which include: demonstration models; videos and documenta- ries; e-learning; and case studies incorporating geotechnical failures. These aids are particularly effective when used in combination with the traditional forms of lectures, tutorials, experimental classes and design projects. The paper includes details of each of these learning tools and the contribution each makes to improv- ing student engagement and learning. 1 INTRODUCTION dition, the paper is intended to be a resource for geo- engineering educators.
