Characterization of Seepage Velocity beneath a Complex Rock Mass Dam Based on Entropy Theory
Owing to the randomness in the fracture flow system, the seepage system beneath a complex rock mass dam is inherently complex and highly uncertain, an investigation of the dam leakage by estimating the spatial distribution of the seepage field by conventional methods is quite difficult. In this paper, the entropy theory, as a relation between the definiteness and probability, is used to probabi...
متن کاملSeepage Control in a High Concrete Face-Rock Fill Dam Based on the Node Virtual Flow Method
Abstract: The seepage control system of a high Concrete Face Rock-Fill Dam (CFRD) may have anti-seepage deficiencies during both construction and operation. In order to solve these, the three-dimensional Finite Element Method (FEM) model was built based on dam body filling, anti-seepage system, defect location and bedrock distribution. The seepage field simulation and computation were carried o...
متن کاملPhysical modelling optimization of a filter check dam in Switzerland
After a major flood with a peak discharge of 177 m3/s in the city of Martigny (Valais, Switzerland) by the alpine river Drance in October 2000, the local authorities are strengthening efforts for the protection of the urban area. The Drance has an annual average discharge of 10 m3/s and the most important floods occur in the late summer. Two lateral torrents potentially supply the Drance with d...
متن کاملRemote Sensing of Deformation of a High Concrete-Faced Rockfill Dam Using InSAR: A Study of the Shuibuya Dam, China
Settlement is one of the most important deformation characteristics of high concrete faced rockfill dams (CFRDs, >100 m). High CFRDs safety would pose a great threat to the security of people’s lives and property downstream if this kind of deformation were not to be measured correctly, as traditional monitoring approaches have limitations in terms of durability, coverage, and efficiency. It has...
متن کاملStructural diagnosis of a concrete dam with cracking and high non- recoverable displacements
Expansions in concrete dams may be caused by chemical or physical sources; however in certain occasions the evidences observed in the dam may not be attributed to a single cause. Mequinenza is an example of a concrete dam affected by expansions and high non-recoverable displacements that cannot be explained by the most frequent pathologies. This paper presents new hypotheses that could justify ...
