Water flowing over a spillway acquires a lot of kinetic energy because of the conversio of the potential energy into kinetic energy.
If the water flowing with such a high velocity is discharged into the river it will scour the river bed.
If the scour is not properly controlled it may extend backward and may endanger the spillway and the dam.

Safety Margin of Slope Stability Using Common Deterministic MethodsIJMER
The objective of this research was to develop a model for deterministic slope stability analysis.
The study was performed through different methods of analysis and compared with Bishop simplified
method, the variation of each input parameter ranged using traditional behavior equations to produce a
distribution of the factor of safety verses the variables. A sensitivity analysis is then applied to the output

2010-2012 GROUNDWATER PLUME AND SOURCE INVESTIGATION IN CAPPED MSW LANDFILL & CHLORINATED SOLVENT DEEP VERTICAL PROFILING
Kandiyohi County Landfill, SW-79
New London, Minnesota
Additional investigative and possible corrective action measures appeared warranted to remediate volatile organic compound (VOC) contamination in the groundwater at the property lines of a municipal solid waste landfill in West Central Minnesota. This work was required by the Minnesota Pollution
Control Agency (MPCA) in 2010. The landfill owner had to
develop and implement a plan that would define the extent of the plume and establish an effective long term groundwater monitoring system.
The source area of the VOCs appeared to be a 23 acre unlined section of the landfill, called the Old Phase I Disposal Area. Preliminary corrective action discussions included total excavation and relocation of the waste material within the Old Phase I Disposal Area to a new lined space on site. Initial cost estimates ranged from 3 to 4 million dollars to complete the relocation of the waste in this area.

CFD Simulation of By-pass Flow in a HRSG module by R&R Consult.pptxR&R Consult
CFD analysis is incredibly effective at solving mysteries and improving the performance of complex systems!
Here's a great example: At a large natural gas-fired power plant, where they use waste heat to generate steam and energy, they were puzzled that their boiler wasn't producing as much steam as expected.
R&R and Tetra Engineering Group Inc. were asked to solve the issue with reduced steam production.
An inspection had shown that a significant amount of hot flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes, where the heat was supposed to be transferred.
R&R Consult conducted a CFD analysis, which revealed that 6.3% of the flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes without transferring heat. The analysis also showed that the flue gas was instead being directed along the sides of the boiler and between the modules that were supposed to capture the heat. This was the cause of the reduced performance.
Based on our results, Tetra Engineering installed covering plates to reduce the bypass flow. This improved the boiler's performance and increased electricity production.
It is always satisfying when we can help solve complex challenges like this. Do your systems also need a check-up or optimization? Give us a call!

Hierarchical Digital Twin of a Naval Power SystemKerry Sado
A hierarchical digital twin of a Naval DC power system has been developed and experimentally verified. Similar to other state-of-the-art digital twins, this technology creates a digital replica of the physical system executed in real-time or faster, which can modify hardware controls. However, its advantage stems from distributing computational efforts by utilizing a hierarchical structure composed of lower-level digital twin blocks and a higher-level system digital twin. Each digital twin block is associated with a physical subsystem of the hardware and communicates with a singular system digital twin, which creates a system-level response. By extracting information from each level of the hierarchy, power system controls of the hardware were reconfigured autonomously. This hierarchical digital twin development offers several advantages over other digital twins, particularly in the field of naval power systems. The hierarchical structure allows for greater computational efficiency and scalability while the ability to autonomously reconfigure hardware controls offers increased flexibility and responsiveness. The hierarchical decomposition and models utilized were well aligned with the physical twin, as indicated by the maximum deviations between the developed digital twin hierarchy and the hardware.
Immunizing Image Classifiers Against Localized Adversary Attacksgerogepatton
This paper addresses the vulnerability of deep learning models, particularly convolutional neural networks
(CNN)s, to adversarial attacks and presents a proactive training technique designed to counter them. We
introduce a novel volumization algorithm, which transforms 2D images into 3D volumetric representations.
When combined with 3D convolution and deep curriculum learning optimization (CLO), itsignificantly improves
the immunity of models against localized universal attacks by up to 40%. We evaluate our proposed approach
using contemporary CNN architectures and the modified Canadian Institute for Advanced Research (CIFAR-10
and CIFAR-100) and ImageNet Large Scale Visual Recognition Challenge (ILSVRC12) datasets, showcasing
accuracy improvements over previous techniques. The results indicate that the combination of the volumetric
input and curriculum learning holds significant promise for mitigating adversarial attacks without necessitating
adversary training.

6. Background
• The Teton Dam was situated on the snake River, three miles northeast of Newdale, Idaho.
• It was designed to provide recreation, flood control, power generation, and irrigation for over
40,000 hectares.
• Design and Construction by U.S. Bureau of Reclamation (USBR).
• Teton Dam, a large earthen dam in eastern Idaho that failed on June 5, 1976 during it’s first filling.
• The failure of Teton Dam killed fourteen people and caused damage to hundreds of million
downstream.
8. Introduction to failure
Sequence of event
Began storing water on October 3,1975.
rising at a rate of about 1 meter (3 feet) per day
On June 3, 1976 several small seepages were noticed in the north abutment wall.
On June 4, 1976 small springs were beginning to appear.
On June 5, 1976
Between 7:30 and 8:00 a.m. the leak was flowing at about 500 to 800 liters per second at right
abutment.
By 9:00 a.m. the flow had increased to 1,100 to 1,400 liters per second .
At 11:00 a.m. a whirlpool was observed in the reservoir .
Between 11:15 and 11:30 a.m. a 6 by 6 meter chunk of dam fell into the whirlpool and within minutes
the entire dam collapsed (Independent Panel, 1976).

Zone Material
1 Silt with some clay , sand and gravel
2 Selected sand, gravel and cobbles
3 Miscellaneous fill
4 Select silt, sand ,gravel and cobbles
5 Rockfill
20. Causes of failure
An Independent panel reviewed the
cause of failure of Teton dam and reach
to the conclusion that the dam failed
due to the high hydraulic gradient in the
key of the dam. Fracturing occurred in
the key of the dam as shown in the
figure.
23. Causes of failure
The upper foundation rock was grouted and the
atturites consider it safe but latter on during
investigation water pressure tests were
performed at about 50 ft and they reported a
very high permeability rock so it mean that the
rock was highly fractured this could have lead to
piping through the foundation.
While these modes of failure are possible, all
physical evidence was washed away on 5 June
1976. The exact mode of failure will never be
known. However, inadequate protection of the
zone one core from internal erosion remains the
undeniable cause of failure.
28. • Two type of analysis is used for dams
1. Seepage analysis
2. Slope stability
Analysis type
29. Seepage analysis is performed using slide software. The following data
is look for
• Horizonal gradient
• Factor of safety against exit gradient
Seepage analysis
31. Vertical gradient
Cohesionless soil
For the case of cohesionless soils, the factor of safety (FS) with respect to vertical exit gradients
(against boiling or heave) is generally defined as the ratio of the critical gradient (Ic) to the predicted or
measured exit gradient (Ie):
33. Relief well
• Relief wells are frequently used to reduce subsurface
hydrostatic pressures in the downstream foundations
of dams and levees.
• Relief wells act like valves to relieve the water pressure and
allow excess water to be diverted safely, for example, to a
canal. Relief wells can prevent sand boils from occurring by
relieving the water pressure as described. In all the model’s
relief well is provided.
35. Slide the software of rocksciences has been used to perform the
following type of analysis
1. Slope stability
2. Transient groundwater analysis
3. Steady state seepage analysis
Slide Software
36. • Auto grid has been used to search for the critical slip surface
• The following method are reported
1. Bishop simplified
2. Janbu simplified

Slope stability
37. • A transient groundwater analysis may be important when there is a time-dependent change in
pore pressure
• As the Teton dam failed in the first filling so it is important to anylisize it for various water level at
various time.
Transient groundwater analysis
38. • The steady state seepage analysis used when the water level is kept constant and the pore
pressure in the soil become constant mean the water come to the soil element become equal to
the water going out of the soil element.
• For all the model this analysis is performed at maximum water level so that we can check the
effect of maximum water level after a considerable amount of time.
• Data like the horizontal, vertical hydraulic gradient, vertical and horizontal seepage velocity has
been noted.

66. Discussion
The Teton dam constructed in 1970s failed due to internal erosion. From this study as shown in the result
section that high internal gradient of up to 7 was developed in the key of the dam. Secondly high internal
gradient was also noted in filter material (zone 2) of the dam.
Various methods in this study are used to model the dam. Like we used the zoned dam, drainage blanket,
toe drain and chimney drain. Each method has its own pros and cons.
Zoned dam is the most appropriate solution as it give the drainage facility on both the sides and due to
rapid drawdown, it will be also stable as the shell will dissipate the water quickly as the water level goes
down.
69. Summery of horizonal gradient check
For cohesionless soil the horizontal hydraulic gradient has been compared with the chugaev
criteria (as mention in the above slide) and has been satisfied for all cohesionless soil of all the
models.
71. Conclusion
• In the present study the slope stability and steady state seepage analysis of the right abutment of Teton
dam has been performed.
• Case of the failure of dam has been analyzed which has been confirmed that it was due to high internal
gradient.
• Four model of Teton dam have been analyzed and their factor of safety has been calculated. The safety has
also been checked against the horizonal gradient as it led to internal erosion.
• The analysis of an earthen dam is not a very simple process. There are many factors that effect the result
which cannot be modeled in the software that must be checked out in the laboratory. Properties like the
plasticity of the core of the dam should be properly evaluated.
• Many thinks during construction should be look for like the gradation of the material.
