Abstrakt: One of the interesting directions of complexity theory is the investigation of the synchronization of mechanical behavior of large-scale systems by weak forcing, which is one of manifestations of nonlinearity/complexity of a system. The effect of periodic weak mechanical or electromagnetic forcing leading to synchronization was studied on the laboratory load-spring system as well as on a big dam's strain data. Due to synchronization, the phase space structure of the forced system strongly depends on the weak forcing intensity-determinism show itself in the recurrence of definite states of the forced system. The nonlinear dynamics of tilts/strains/seismicity near grand dams reflect both the complexity of the mentioned time series, connected with the natural agents (regional and local geodynamics), which were presented even before dam erection, as well as the effects of the water level (WL) variation in the reservoir, which is a quasi-periodic forcing superimposed on the natural geodynamic background. Both these effects are documented by the almost half-century of observations at the large Enguri Dam. The obtained data on the dynamics of strain/seismicity near a large dam can be used for the assessment of the possible risks, connected with the abrupt change of routine dynamics of construction.
