Numerical simulation of reservoir sediment and effects on hydro-dynamic response of arch dams.

Based on the dynamic theory for saturated porous media by Biot (Journal of the Acoustical Society of America), a numerical model is presented to analyse the reflection behaviours of reservoir sediment and compared with those from the visco-elastic model. It is concluded that the two models give very...
