Abstract

Investigating the dynamic response of a concrete gravity dam (Pine Flat) is the objective of this study. The acoustic-structure coupling interaction is applied to simulate the reservoir-dam system. The effect of foundation size and the efficiency of the infinite element available in the ABAQUS code to model boundaries are studied. From the comparison of displacement, dynamic pressure and acceleration time history, the evaluation of the dam response to the rising water level is performed. The concrete damaged plasticity model is adopted to evaluate the damage and cracking of the dam caused by Taft earthquake.
