Abstract/Additional Information

The effect of the temperature factor on the stress-strain state of the dam at the Sayano-Shushenskaya HPP is analyzed. The irreversible character of the changes in the dam after operation in an unscheduled regime during the winter of 2009/10 is indicated. Possible causes are assigned for a reduction in the structural compression modulus of the dam. Recommendations are given for the limiting allowable level of reservoir filling. 2013 Springer Science+Business Media New York.
