 Nowadays, dam safety is becoming more relevant in our society due to the importance of its functions (power generation, water supply, flood control) and the severity of the consequences in case of a serious breakdown. The "safety of hydraulic infrastructures" is one of the priorities according to the R<math display="inline">\& </math>D Spanish State Program which is oriented to social challenges.

 The proposed software is validated with a real case: La Baells dam. The computational results have shown excellent agreement with the obtained data during monitoring process.

-Eq.[[#eq-44|44]] requires that matrix '''C''' be easily invertible for an effective implementation. The reduction of the matrix to a diagonal or "lumped" form can be accomplished by various procedures, for instance row-sum <span id='citeF-19'></span>[[#cite-19|[19]]] zhu2005finite. Forward-Euler method is conditionally stable and the stability condition is governed by the thermal diffusivity of the material, and the finite element space <span id='citeF-20'></span>[[#cite-20|[20]]]. Euler method is first-order accuracy in time. The main attraction of an explicit scheme is the fact that a matrix solution is not required and computer storage requirements are minimal.

 As long term goal, it can be mentioned: the development of a module for simulating the solidification process during the construction phase, the introduction of non-linear constitutive laws, the coupling between fluid- structure and foundation (e.g. in a rock joint), all of them with the aim of analyzing extreme conditions.
