AN INVESTIGATION ON THE MECHANICAL BEHAVIOURS OF CONCRETE GRAVITY DAM

Öz

Dams are large water structures built to meet various water needs of people. In addition to irrigation and drinking water, they also contribute to electricity generation. The planning of dam construction is crucial for the effective management of water resources. Due to their large size, detailed feasibility studies must be conducted before the construction of dams begins. After the feasibility studies, verifying the structural integrity of dams deemed suitable for the region through experimental studies is often impractical or costly. Instead of experimental studies, analysis programs frequently preferred for solving engineering problems are utilized today. In this study, the ANSYS program, which operates using the finite element method, was chosen. ANSYS is a powerful analysis program that combines many modules and provides an opportunity to examine problems under realistic scenarios. In this study, analysis was performed using the workbench interface of the ANSYS program. A concrete gravity dam, whose dimensions were provided and modeled accordingly, was examined. The dam was modeled in detail to create a realistic scenario. In addition to the dam's self-weight, displacement and stress values under water load were determined. The analysis was conducted considering that two-thirds of the dam was filled with water. The applied water load was modeled in accordance with fluid mechanics principles, impacting the structure. The displacement and stress values for the upstream side were examined and interpreted. According to the results, the displacement value reached its highest value at the top of the dam. The stress value was found to be highest at the base of the dam.
