Dam Engineering
International papers of technical excellence
Published quarterly by International Water Power
& Dam Construction, Dam Engineering is the
industry's best vehicle to promote the
exchange of technical information on
dams and associated structures.
Dam Engineering features fully-reviewed
quantitative papers on aspects of the
planning, design, construction and maintenance of
reservoirs, dams and barrages, and scientific aspects of the
design, analysis and modelling of dams, hydro power
plants and associated structures. A subscription to this highly technical journal can be ordered online.
An independent journal, with a well-respected
board of reviewers, Dam Engineering represents
a much needed forum, in an organised context,
which will appeal not only to the specialist
but also to the discipline in general. First
published in January 1990, topics covered in
Dam Engineering include:
- Methods of analysis and modelling aspects
of: loads for natural and man-made environments;
structure, reservoir and foundation domains;
transient and steady state fluid flow; joints,
cracks and other discontinuities; transient and steady state
temperature effects.
- Behavioural characteristics and material
modelling of: mass concrete; embankment material;
new materials (including asphaltic concrete and RCC);
rock foundations (including jointed rock);
fracture in concrete and rock.
- Case studies of the application of advanced
analysis and correlation with numerical model
and prototype measurements.
- Modelling and analysis for failure and safety criteria.
- Correlation of surveillance data with safety criteria (including expert systems).
- Geometrical design and dam optimisation.
- Quantitative aspects of dam siting and construction.
- Construction: analysis of existing practice; new methods and materials.
- Interaction between civil and mechanical structures.
- Refurbishment of dams and hydro plants, including:
analysis of civil structures,
and quantitative comparison of structures before and after repair.
