In this paper, the non-linear seismic response of arch dams is presented using the concept of Continuum Damage Mechanics (CDM). The analysis is performed using the "nite element technique and appropriate non-linear material and damage models in conjunction with the -algorithm for time marching. Beca
The present paper describes numerical techniques for the computational simulation of the membrane method for shape determination of arch dams and subsequent stress analysis of the dam shell. The method is based on the nonlinear computation of membrane deformation using the finite-element method. Tec
