El Atazar Simulation
|
|
In 1989, three-dimensional numerical simulations of the dam and its
foundation were performed. The 3D computer model
of the dam is shown below.
|
 |
|
The weight of the concrete and the force of the water were applied to the
model in the simulation. The initial crack and final crack are shown below
(at a magnification of 800x). |
