AB  - This paper discusses several considerations related to appropriate numerical modelling of the reservoirhydrodynamic pressures on dams. The reservoir is modelled with 8-noded isoparametric displacementbased solid finite elements. The study includes both stiff and flexible dams with vertical and slopedupstream faces under ramp, harmonic and random acceleration loads. The numerical results were comparedand found to be in good agreement with available closed-form solutions. The same approach maybe used in analyses of other waterfront structures such as quay walls.
