'Structural safety evaluation of Karun III Dam and calibration of its finite element model using instrumentation and site observation' by H. Mirzabozorga, M.A. Hariri-Ardebilib, M. Heshmatia, S.M. Seyed-Kolbadia

This article published in Case Studies in Structural Engineering is freely available on ScienceDirect 

Highlights:

•Three-dimensional finite element model of a high arch dam was prepared.

•Finite element model was calibrated in thermal and static conditions.

•Micro geodesies measurements and instrumentations were used for calibration.

•Static safety of Karun III Dam was evaluated using updated material properties.
