Abstract:

The multilevel finite element technique for determination of dam-foundation stressstrain state under tectonic fault slip is developed. Computational model includes an active fault, dam and foundation. The methodology is used to calculate stress-strain state of concrete structures and foundation of Sayano-Shushenskaya HPP under Borusskiy fault presumable slip.
