    Perhaps the device at 0:54 was measuring and recording the water's speed, force, direction of flow, etc. etc, gathering imperical data necessary to determine thresholds to improve structures retaining X amounts of water? Or were they trying to save someone's RC speedboat?

    Failure is by piping and overtopping, the "landslide" is a consequence unless it's the name of the experimental Dam. We can't see the earlier in the video but I suspect that piping lead to subsidence and then overtopping of the dam in that area.
  • This is the second video of a Chinese dam breaching where the recording camera was at the same level as the top of the dam. It’s annoying not to be able to see the water backing up behind the dam. Maybe that is what the hydrologists want.

    Ah.......what exactly was the experiment and what was learned?
  • با این حساب سد خاکی در چند کلیومتری چالوس خطری جدی برای استان مازندران محسوب میشود یا نه؟

    Field experiment? I learned more at 8 years old playing in the creek.

    Here we see what is going to happen at the Oroville dam in the next few weeks

    My dream job building dams and then busting a hole in it

    Clearly the yellow boat thing was at fault!!!

    I'm not sure you could pay me enough money to stand on an embankment that shows THAT much piping.
