What is Probabilistic Filter Design for Dams about?
This document discusses a probabilistic model for evaluating constriction size distributions in earth dam and levee filters. The model can be used to select appropriate filter grain size distributions to improve filter performance for both retaining eroded fines and allowing drainage. Key factors considered include the percentage of erodible fines in the base soil, the clogging potential of chimney filters, and the optimum constriction size of the filter material. An example application of the model is prov
