20160715 Field Experiment of Landslide Dam Breaching in Huisun Forest

[@NOMAD-qp3dd]

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?

Wait.... Someone get paid to play like I used to do when I was a kid??

Si!!!! Muere de envidia; Y a escala 1:1

[@franklinbarrett4630]

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.

Excellent water porn. Great money shot.

[@AndreasDelleske]

Clay Loomis I wish I could last that long. Great buildup. Waters were really flowing down there.

[@MrDrewthat]

Ah.......what exactly was the experiment and what was learned?

[@franklinbarrett4630]

There is another video almost identical to this one where the gravel dam did not have a network of wires covering it. They are learning that you can’t build successful dams on the cheap. You need clay or concrete to hold back water.

@@franklinbarrett4630 Are they wires? Or white paint lines?

[@cherylm2C6671]

@@salparadise1220 Looks like paint. Not a gabion in sight.

[@trevorliu735]

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.

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

[@jnolette1030]

Its half empty

[@paulmavric887]

Different 👍👍

[@cosmosabinodossantos3977]

Maravilhoso

[@jnolette1030]

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

[@JasmineLindros]

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

[@wrayday7149]

Clearly the yellow boat thing was at fault!!!

[@RAndrewKReed]

Damn!

Looks faked

[@trevorliu735]

It's a model, field experiment.

I LOVE THIS! i Hate Dams! Diversion Dams, Detention Dams, Buttress Dams, Gravity Dams, Embankment Dams, Arch Dams, Cofferdams, Masonry Dams, Steel Dams! lol Tear Them All Down! Free The Sediment! Let The Fish Live! Get Your Power From The Sun. lol. K, Bye! But, Overall, good Video.
