The purpose of this research is to develop a dam breaching mathematical model, which takes into account the three-dimensional structural stability of the embankment and the spatial variability of the soil parameters. The erosion part of the model was developed by using and modifying some of the available breaching models such as the Fread Breach Model. The three-dimensional structural stability analysis part of the model was developed by the author. The spatial variability of the soil parameters was taken into consideration using Monte Carlo method. For the stability analysis, in addition to the Monte Carlo method, the nearest-neighbor concept, extended for three-dimensional simulations, was used to get a set of correlated soil parameters for the analysis. The model showed close prediction for the breach parameters for both Mantaro Dam and Teton Dam actual failure cases. The spatial variability analysis showed a suggested distribution for outflow, three-dimensional factor of safety, and the breach area.
