Application of reliability theory in calculation of safety reservoir

Abstract

The design of confidence of safety for irrigation reservoirs has been developed upon theory of hydraulic works, theory of systems and theory of confidence levels II and III, algorithms of SYPRO2016. They are two of several practical problems for design of irrigation reservoirs built under marginal conditions of Vietnam such as: problem for assessement of confidence of irrigation headworks under single flood regulation option and prolem for design of dam under allowable confidence. Upon the design of confidence for individual components of the wroks, it’s possible to evaluate effects of random variables and individual emergency mechanisms of the reservoir.
