- Abstract: We present an application of a response surface method in analysis of hydraulic structures on three sample cases: analysis of Moste dam, analysis of large roller gate on the Moste dam, and analysis of measurements of hydraulic jump in the laboratory. In the first two cases the method is used to further analyse the results of a numerical experiment, while in the case of a hydraulic jump, the method is applied when dealing with measured data on a scaled physical model ina laboratory. Probabilistic analysis of structures can provide additional information about the behaviourof the system that cannot be identified using only deterministic approach. The three sample cases canpresent a broad prospect in use of response surface method for various types of analysis.
