• Load and Deformation Relations of Placed Riprap Model with Toe Support 

      Dezert, Theo; Ravindra, Ganesh Hiriyanna Rao; Sigtryggsdottir, Fjola Gudrun (Chapter, 2022)
      Abstract: Rockfill dams are hydraulic structures of major importance that can be exposed to extreme flood events, leading to overtopping processes. These phenomena erode and weaken their structural and geotechnical stability. ...
    • Placed Riprap Deformation Related to Axial Load at Toe Support: Physical Modelling 

      Dezert, Theo; Ravindra, Ganesh Hiriyanna Rao; Sigtryggsdottir, Fjola Gudrun (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)
      Rockfill dams are hydraulic structures of major importance. They can be exposed to extreme flood events, in turn leading to overtopping. These phenomena erode and affect structural and geotechnical integrity, which in turn ...
    • Riprap Protection Exposed to Overtopping Phenomena: A Review of Laboratory Experimental Models 

      Dezert, Theo; Kiplesund, Geir Helge; Sigtryggsdottir, Fjola Gudrun (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)
      There are increasing demands from dam safety regulations and guidelines to upgrade the rockfill dams, especially in Norway where over 180 large rockfill dams are present. To protect the hydraulic structure against overtopping ...
