Abstrakt:

In this paper, the three-dimensional (3D) seismic plastic damage performance of the Ermenek Arch Dam (220 m), which was built in Karaman, Turkey, in 2009, is investigated by including different gallery spaces. 3D modeling of the dam is performed using the finite-difference method, and four various gallery spaces are added to the dam model considering their original oval geometries. WIPP-Drucker (WD) material model is utilized for the dam’s concrete material in creep and seismic damage analyses. Moreover, the Mohr–Coulomb material model is utilized for the foundation. Quiet nonreflecting and free-field boundary conditions are taken into account in the earthquake analyses, and reflecting (fix) boundary condition is used in the factor of safety (FOS) analyses in order to minimize the reflection of earthquake waves at the boundaries. First, the FOS analyses of the Ermenek Dam are performed considering the WD material model, and the optimum mesh space is determined according to FOS analyses. Then, 3D earthquake analyses are performed for 10 important strong ground motions that occurred in Kahramanmaraş, Hatay, Malatya, and Gaziantep in 2023. As a result of the FOS analyses, it is suggested that the mesh length of arch dams should not be chosen randomly while performing the earthquake analyses, and the FOS analyses of arch dams should be carried out using the WD material model before choosing the mesh space. Besides, it is concluded that selected ground motions for seismic analyses have created significant plastic damage around the galleries of the Ermenek Arch Dam, and gallery spaces are of great importance for the seismic plastic damage behavior of arch dams.
