📌 Description
As dam structures become larger and more complex, accurate stability assessment and realistic foundation modeling are becoming increasingly important in structural engineering practice. Engineers are often required to evaluate how different base assumptions and boundary conditions influence structural behavior, stress distribution, and overall stability performance.
In this webinar, we will introduce practical stability assessment workflows for dam structures using MIDAS FEA NX. The session will cover both flexible base and rigid base analysis approaches, including dam–foundation interaction concepts, interface stress evaluation, nodal grid force applications, and practical modeling considerations.
The webinar will also provide comparative engineering insights between flexible and rigid base assumptions, helping engineers better understand their impact on analysis results and design decisions. Through practical examples and workflow demonstrations, participants will learn effective modeling approaches and stability evaluation techniques applicable to real-world dam engineering projects.
