Earth Fill Dam

preprocessor

postprocessor
Determination of water pressures in a simple earth dam.
Model setup time: 22 minutes
Solution time: 7 seconds on PIII-1.0 GHz
Nodes: 2023


Example Dam

preprocessor

postprocessor
Determination of water pressures water table location in an earth dam feature.
Model setup time: 19 minutes
Solution time: 7 minutes 30 seconds on PIII-1.0 GHz
Nodes: 15744


Mica Earth Dam 3D

This is an example of modeling the core of the Mica earth dam in 3D. The layers outside the core and the bedrock are not represented in the model because they are several orders of magnitude more conductive and therefore they don't influence model results.
