Penstock Tunnel Burst at Koppili Hydro Station on 6 October 2019 at 2302 hrs UTC

The penstock tunnel burst at the Koppili Hydroelectric station, submerging the power house and trapping the staff inside on 7 October 432 AM IST or at 2302 UTC on 6th October 2019. In view of great uncertainties of the phenomenon, I apply the precautionary principle and arrive scientifically at the following line of progressive destruction of the penstock tunnel. World Dam Dynamics suddenly applied bursting shear force and water moment inputs by causing earthquakes great and major at various points of time from 1 January 2019 to 6th October 2019 as shown by the following Figures:

1.       Great earthquake of 8 MM moment magnitude on 27 May 2019 at 22:55 hrs UTC caused a shock bursting shearing input of more than 10000 m62 rupture area of the tunnel:
2.       A 7.3 MM moment magnitude great earthquake caused a bursting shearing input area of  some 1500 m^2 shearing area input on 15 June 2019 at 22:55 UTC:

3.       We are really lucky that such great and major beyond design basis inputs occurred caused by Dam content changes which caused earthquakes through World Dam Dynamics  and still the hydro station  seemingly escaped unscathed. There were three more major earthquakes greater than 7 MM magnitude also resulting in sheared area inputs of similar magnitude, one of 7.3 MM magnitude on 24th June 2019 at Saumlaki, Indonesia, one of 7.1 MM magnitude on 6th July 2019 and one on 14 July 2019 of 7.2 MM magnitude, interspersed by a number of strong earthquakes.

4.       Koppili also experienced a number of earthquakes in its neighbourhood from January 2019 till finally luck ran out and the penstock ruptured on 7 Oct 2019:

5.The neighbourhood earthquakes and their effects regarding the shock penstock burst inputs till it punctured on 6th October at 23:02 UTC are shown in the Figure below:

This article is a big zero because it ignores my work on dams as the principal cause of many catastrophes befalling the wild man and his industrial revolution. In living in this world by his own will and skill, the stupidest peasant or tribesman is more competent than the most intelligent worker or technician or intellectual in a society of specialists- Wendell Berry In the Unsettling of America- Culture and Agriculture.
