The stability analysis of dam walls using artificial neural network

The stability of rock slopes of the walls of Roodbar dam in Lorestan is investigated using multi-layer Perceptron of artificial neural network algorithm. Then, the stability of rock slopes is studied by considered factors affecting stability at before and after impounding dam. The calculation is done on the factors affecting stability using artificial neural network algorithm. Finally, the results show that rock slopes of the walls of Roodbar dam in Lorestan in a dry state are stable at seventeen modes and unstable at three modes. Also, in a saturated state are stable at fourteen modes and unstable at six modes, furthermore have generally a little stability. The results of this paper indicated that the calculation are augmentable with experimental results.
