Assessment of embankment dams breaching using large scale physical modeling and statistical methods
Understanding the failure mechanisms of embankment dams due to overtopping is essential for the design of flood mitigation, flood mapping, and flood warning systems. The breach process in embankment dams can be characterized using breach parameters such as breach opening dimensions, time of breach f...
