Les barrages en remblai, et les barrages en general, sont dimensionnes pour resister aux differents facteurs (meteorologique, sismique, humain) qui pourraient causer leur rupture. Cependant, le risque zero n’existe pas et la probabilite que chaque

The standard procedure in Quebec, Canada, for evaluating the failure of an embankment dam, per the Loi sur la securite des barrages, specifies a 30-min-long failure scenario with a breach width equal to four times the maximal height of the dam. We de

This paper presents the results of a laboratory investigation whose purpose was to evaluate the effects of compaction on the erodibility of cohesionless soils. By means of a recently developed flume experiment, sediment erosion rates and incipient mo

During the last four decades, several numerical formulations and specialized software have been developed in response to studies about dam break (DB) wave propagation and its hydraulic and environmental impacts on downstream hydraulic structures and

Attempts to forecast the final form of a dam-break suffer from various uncertainty sources such as field data (topography, hydraulic and geotechnical parameters), and modeling assumptions. So the result seems to be at least partially chaotic and diff

Mots cles : gestion de reservoir, previsions, apports, risque, incertitude. Abstract: The behaviour of a hydric system depends on three factors : (i) the state of the installation, ( ii) the operating rules, and (iii) the inflows. While the first two

There is a general belief in the public eye that extreme events such as floods are becoming more and more common. This paper explores this hypothesis by examining the historical evolution of annual expected flooding damage on the Chateauguay River Ba

Because of uncertainty on inflows, a hydroelectric system may at any time leave its normal zone of operation and fail. This paper proposes a way to continuously measure this risk of failure by presenting it in the form of time-varying indicators. The

The failure of a submerged dyke is very often due to the erosion of the materials that form the work. The erosion process continues until a hydro-geotechnical equilibrium is developed between the spillover and the dyke. An experimental laboratory stu

Drinking water storage tanks are used to respond to fluctuating demand and to maintain water pressure in the distribution network. In drinking water plants, they are also used for disinfection. In both cases, a good knowledge of the residence time di
