Abstract :
The paper describes the development of an interactive video focusing on groundwater flow phenomena in embankment dams. Using digital video, html and javascript an interactive web application has been developed to provide a learning tool for soil mechanics students. The web application is able to indicate further references through social networks in order to stimulate interest and promote deeper learning of embankment dam engineering and related phenomena.
