Seismic Safety Evaluation of Weir Structures Considering the Soil-Structure Interrelationship
In order to evaluate the seismic safety of weir structure subjected to seismic ground motions, Non-linear elastic 2D plane strain Finite Model (FE) was developed in ABAQUS. Also, the 1994 Northridge earthquake as a ground motion uncertainty was selected. The numerical results show that the tensile stress was increased with increase the friction coefficient
