Abstract:
This thesis focuses on a thorough examination of the stability of dam slopes
under a variety of difficult conditions, including pore pressure, abrupt reservoir
emptying, and additional stresses brought on by external forces during earthquakes.
This thesis's main goal is to investigate the behaviour and stability of embankment
dam slopes by thoroughly examining the complex interactions between these
variables. The thesis examines the effects of pore pressure, abrupt changes in water
level, and earthquake-induced stresses on dam slope stability by utilizing cutting-edge
computational algorithms and geotechnical analysis methodologies. The findings of
this analysis provide a thorough understanding of potential failure mechanisms and
offer insightful advice for the construction and upkeep of dams located in earthquake prone areas
