Abstract:The current SNiP [Construction Specifications and Regulations] II-A. 12-62 [i] envisage that the seismic resistance of a dam made of local materials should be calculated, for example, by the method of circular-cylindrical slip surfaces. The seismic loads are regarded as inertial forces acting at the centers of gravity of the mathematical elements into which the cross section of the dam is divided. However, the norms do not envisage calculation of the stability of the embankment slopes; planning organizations … Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
