Decision Support System in Thailand's Dam Safety With a Mobile Application for Public Relations
This paper describes the decision-making based on civil engineering expertise of the dam safety remote monitoring system (DS-RMS), which decides on action-based advice depending on every-day scenarios and special occurrences...
A cascading risk model for the failure of the concrete spillway of the Toddbrook dam, England during the August 2019 flooding

Dam break is considered as a major catastrophe with significant negative economic, social, and environmental consequences, and thus must be prevented at any cost. Here, we report and analyze a near-miss dam break incident in...

The effects of dam-reservoir interaction on the nonlinear seismic response of earth dams

The objective of this study is to investigate the effects of dam–reservoir interaction (DRI) on the nonlinear seismic response of earth dams. Although DRI effects have for long been considered as insignificant for earth dams...

Study of dam break flow interaction with urban settlements over a sloping channel

This paper describes a dam break experiment on a sloped channel, carried out in a hydraulic flume at UCL for the purpose of computer model validations of extreme events, such as flash floods. An elevated reservoir was...

Coordination Cages Selectively Transport Molecular Cargoes Across Liquid Membranes.
Chemical purifications are critical processes across many industries, requiring 10-15% of humanity's global energy budget. Coordination cages are able to catch and release guest molecules based upon their size and shape...
