Feasibility Study of Dez Arch Dam Heightening Based on Nonlinear Numerical Analysis of Existing Dam

The Dez dam was commissioned in 1963 and since sediments accumulated in the reservoir up to an elevation of approximately 15m below the intake of the power tunnel. One of the possible measures to improve operation of the reservoir is by heightening of the existing dam. This paper describes the condu...
