Abstract: The risk analysis simulation model for water resources in the downstream area of Yellow River is established in this paper. The non-synchronous characteristic of the relationship between water consumption and runoff of the Yellow River is considered. the Monte Carlo method is applied to the modeling. The risks of water shortage under the conditions of various scale of water consumption are simulated randomly. The result indicates that the irrigation area should be limited to less than 2,330,000hm2, in case new water resources failed to be developed and the norm of water consumption not being significantly change.

(Sichuan University; 2.Lanzhou Institute of Glacier and Frozen Soil Research)

Abstract: Based on the characteristics of seepage through layered RCCD, a mathematical model coupling the seepage analysis with stress field calculation for RCCD is propsed. The flow through layers in RCCD exerts normal seepage pressure and tangent hauling force on the dam body. The apertures of layers vary with the stress condition. The application of this model to calculation of an example by means of FEM is also given. It is shown that the stress will be higher and the stress concentration at the dam hell will be more notable if the coupling effect is taken into account.

(Shangdong Institute of Building Material;2.Zhejiang University)

Abstract: The fracture parameters and low cycle fatigue fracture properties of carbon fiber reinforced concrete is investigated under static load using three point bending beam test method. The influence of loading history on fracture mechanism is studied by using the method for compliance calibration. The results show that the fracture parameters will be noticeably reduced if the pre loading strength is higher than a certain threshold. While the crack propagation length is independent of the fatigue life. The carbon fiber has a considerable beneficial effect on the behavior of concrete in against fatigue.

Study on piping leakage mechanism

CHEN Jian-sheng, LI Xin-wen, ZHAO Wei-bin
(Hohai University)

Abstract: In this paper, the mechanism of piping causing concentrated seepage in dyke is studied in depth. In the initial stage of piping, the theory of well flow is applied to imitate the seepage field of river water flowing from piping riser. The affected area of initial piping and its progressively developing process are determined according to the critical sepage gradient. The critical surface of piping can be defined by using the seepage model.At first, the sand rising range and the amount of sands to be flushed out are comparatively larger since the seepage gradient is highest in the vicinity of dyke surface. As piping discharge increased, the seepage gradient will be reduced. As a result, the critical surface draws back inside and a concentrated seepage band formed. The natural and isotope tracer methods for detecting the piping seepage leakage in site are also discussed in this paper.

Key words: piping;seepage gradient; piping critical
