Detection of Incipient Failure in Earth Dams
A study was made of the dynamic properties of small dams by means of exciting the dam with a mechanical vibrator. The objective was to explore the reliability of the dynamic response parameters to detect incipient failure. Severe limitations within the mechanical vibrator limited the scope of this study to the investigation of the repeatability of the dynamic response to seasonal variations.
