Nonlinear Response of High Arch Dams to Nonuniform Seismic Excitation Considering Joint Effects
Nonuniform excitation due to spatially varying ground motions on nonlinear responses of concrete arch dams is investigated. A high arch dam was selected as numerical example, reservoir was modelled as incompressible material, foundation was assumed as mass-less medium, and all contraction and periph...
