Failure in an earth dam mostly occurs due to extreme water level fluctuation in the upstream. This research is aiming at analyzing the effect of rapid rising and rapid drawdown of water level to the structural integrity of an earth dam. The earth dam is modeled physically in a laboratory experiment....
