Rational Transmitting Boundaries for Time-Domain Analysis of Dam-Reservoir Interaction by Benedikt Weber.

Most existing arch dams have been designed for seismic loading by static methods involving the use of seismic coefficients. Although there are no known examples of arch dams which have been seriously damaged by earthquakes, the need for more realistic seismic analyses is now well recognized, not onl...
