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...
Field surveys of September 2018 landslide-generated waves in the Apporo dam reservoir, Japan
We report and analyze a case study of landslide-generated waves that occurred in the Apporo dam reservoir (Hokkaido, Japan) culminating from the rare incident of hazard combination from the September 2018 Typhoon Jebi and...

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...

Three Gorges Dam alters the footprint of particulate heavy metals in the Yangtze Estuary.
Two scenarios were selected to simulate the situation before the closure of the Three Gorges Dam (TGD) in 1996 (Scenario 1) and after the completion of the Three Gorges Project in 2010 (Scenario 2). A modified polar co-ordinated...

Application of cement grouting for stabilization of coarse materials
In a rare engineering experience throughout the world, we successfully stabilized relatively coarse materials of drain using cement grouting. The grouting work was performed at the Karkheh earth dam, southwest Iran, and was part...

Addressing conflict over dams
The World Commission on Dams (WCD) was active between 1998 and 2000. Despite the Commission’s short life, it left a lasting mark on the global debate on large dams, one of the most intractable and conflicted issues in...

Larger fragments have more late-successional species of woody plants than smaller fragments after 50 years of secondary succession
J Liu, DA Coomes, G Hu, J Liu, J Yu, Y Luo, M Yu
Jan 08, 2019
Most fragmentation research focuses on the effects of carving up old‐growth forests, but less is known about influences of habitat fragmentation on secondary succession in patches of regenerating forests. Working with forest...

Exploiting Semantic Term Relations in Text Summarization
The traditional frequency based approach to creating multi-document extractive summary ranks sentences based on scores computed by summing up TF*IDF weights of words contained in the sentences. In this approach, TF or term...
