Abstract

Purpose. To analyze statistical data on emergency situations at hydraulic structures, assess their main causes and consequences, and formulate the topics for future research in the field of forecasting and preventing emergency situations at hydraulic structures.

Methods. Theoretical analysis.

Findings. An analysis of emergency situations at hydraulic structures of technical reservoirs has been carried out, previously conducted research in the field of accident prevention on enclosing structures of technical reservoirs has been studied, the field of scientific interests has been identified in terms of further research in the field of emergency prevention and assessment of stability of enclosing structures of technical reservoirs, and the development of a system of compensating measures to prevent emergencies at structures of this type.

Application field of research. The analysis of accidents at hydraulic structures of technical reservoirs will lay the foundation for future research in order to develop a set of compensatory measures to prevent emergencies at technical reservoirs, «stop» accidents at the initial stages, and reduce the consequences of such situations.
