Abstract

Dams are critical infrastructure because their failure would have catastrophic consequences for the community. for the dam owner to manage the dam's safety throughout its life cycle. However, maintaining dam safety is a challenging task as there are changes in current dam states. These changes introduce new risks to the dam's safety that were not considered when the dam was designed. A new framework must be developed to adapt to the changes in dam risk and make the dams more resilient. This study proposes a risk-based decision-making adaptation framework for dam safety management. The study focuses on the impact of climate change on hydrology because it is the primary cause of flooding and dam damage. The framework for risk analysis is adopted to enhance dam management strategies. The proposed study is divided into four phases. The first phase involves measuring the effect by evaluating
