9783725887538: Advances in Dam Engineering of the 21st Century

Synopsis

The 21st century has emerged as a transformative period for dam engineering, shaped by rapid technological innovation, increasing environmental awareness, the aging of existing infrastructure, and the growing global need for climate resilience. As demands for water resources, renewable energy, and sustainable infrastructure continue to intensify, the role of dams has expanded far beyond their traditional purposes. Today, dams function not only as vital components of critical infrastructure but also as platforms for innovation, sustainability, and adaptive design and maintenance. In this Reprint, the editorial article "Advances in Dam Engineering of the 21st Century" highlights major developments across a broad range of dam engineering disciplines in the first quarter of the century. It provides an integrated overview of progress in materials science, design methodologies, construction practices, monitoring technologies, and comprehensive risk management strategies, and it examines the digital transformation that is reshaping the field. The twelve papers included in this Reprint present a cohesive and detailed portrait of contemporary dam engineering. Collectively, they encompass advanced modeling, risk assessment, material behavior, and safety governance, outlining the modern pipeline of dam safety practice, from hazard definition and structural modeling to material testing and policy evolution.
