Particle image velocimetry analysis of the protective layer in embankment dams by Nisal Deelaka Halaba Arachchige Senarathna, Théo Dezert, Théo Dezert, Fjóla Guðrún Sigtryggsdóttir

“…The study brings to light that for models with placed riprap, the initiation occurs simultaneously at the top and the bottom of the protective layer confirming the assertions made in prior studies regarding a failure mechanism marked by a sliding process. The study further confirms that for structures with toe support, the breach initiation occurs at the top of the protective layer. …”
