Finite Element Analysis of Transverse Cracking in Low-Embankment Dams
The objective of this research was to study some of the factors leading to transverse cracking in low-embankment dams using finite element analyses. The factors studied were: (1) the analysis procedure, gravity turn-on or construction sequence, (2) the magnitude and time of occurrence of the settlement of the dam, (3) the stress-strain characteristics of the dam material, and (4) the shape of the abutment profile.
