CADAM3D is a user-friendly software based on the gravity method originally developed for one of the world biggest concrete dam owner, Hydro-Quebec, and for Dams and Hydrology of the Quebec Ministry of Environment (Quebec's legislator for dam safety). CADAM3D is fully functional and is intensively used by Hydro-Quebec since 2005. To our knowledge, no other software similar to CADAM3D is available at this time.
If you perform stability analyzes of concrete hydraulic structures, this software will allow you to perform them much faster and more efficiently.

The OVA episode (Sometime on a Snowy Day) is a poignant, standalone addition to the Natsume Yuujinchou series that perfectly captures its signature blend of warmth and melancholy. A Gentle Winter Tale
Despite Nyanko-sensei’s initial annoyance, Natsume decides to help the spirit. They eventually discover that the "treasure" the snowman was looking for—a seed—was inside its own body all along. Natsume Yuujinchou Itsuka Yuki no Hi ni OVA Epi...
The story begins with a typical winter day for Natsume Takashi, who meets a snowman-like youkai while out on a walk. The spirit is searching for something "warm and lovable" but cannot remember exactly what it is. This setup allows the series to explore its core themes of . The OVA episode (Sometime on a Snowy Day)
Reviewers often describe this OVA as "chicken soup for the soul" because of its gentle pacing and focus on empathy. It reinforces Natsume’s character growth—his willingness to risk his own safety to help a stranger, even when warned of the danger. The story begins with a typical winter day
The episode doesn't drastically change the series' overarching plot, but it remains a essential watch for fans who appreciate the show's iyashikei (healing) atmosphere. Natsume Yuujinchou: Itsuka Yuki no Hi ni [OVA] - Anime Evo
When the snowman realizes the seed is there, it blossoms into a Yuki-hana (snow flower) . However, this beautiful transformation means the spirit must melt away, leaving Natsume with a lingering sense of sadness as he witnesses its final, happy moment. Why Fans Love This Episode
RS-DAM is a computer program that was primarily designed to provide a computational tool to evaluate the transient response of a completely cracked concrete dam section subjected to seismic loads. RS-DAM is also used to support research and development on structural behavior and safety of concrete dams.
RS-DAM is based on rigid body dynamic equilibrium. It performs a transient rocking and/or sliding analysis of a cracked dam section subjected to either base accelerations or time varying forces. Several modelling options have been included to allow users to explore the influence of parameters (e.g. geometry, additional masses, variation of the uplift force upon rotation, hydrodynamic pressures in translation (Westergaard) and rotation, center of rotation moving with sliding, coefficient of restitution of impact, etc...). RS-DAM is developed in a university context and has no commercial aspect.
TADAM (Thermal Analysis of concrete DAMs) software employs a new frequency-domain solution technique to solve the 1D thermal transfer problem, allowing the calculation of temperature histories in a concrete dam section.
The direct solution calculates the evolution of the temperature distributions from the temperature histories of the upstream and downstream faces. The inverse solution uses temperature histories, measured inside the section, in order to calculate the temperature fields at the external faces, while taking into account the thermal wave attenuation effects and the phase angles along the section.
