The current method of probabilistic safety assesses dams with ground material by the criterion of water overflow through the dam crest. Due to the stochastic nature of the material properties, loads and impacts method involves the use of the Monte Carlo method (statistical tests). The algorithm was tested on the example of the ground material dams of Nam Chien hydropower in the Vietnam.
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.
