Numerical Simulation of Interaction of Cut-Off Wall and Earth-Rock Dam in the Reinforcement Project

Article Preview

Abstract:

Concrete cut-off wall has been widely used in the reinforcement project of earth-rock dam. Its design method and construction technology are comparatively mature, but comprehensive study of interaction of cut-off wall and dam is few, especially for the case that new cut-off wall built in earth-rock dam. In order to discuss the principal and law of interaction of cut-off wall and earth-rock dam in the reinforcement project, seepage field and stress field coupled numerical model was established by using ABAQUS. The contact between the wall and the dam together with the coupling of the stress and the seepage were taken into account in the model. Through coupling calculation of typical earth-rock dam project, the results show that, the model is feasible to simulate the interaction of cut-off wall and earth-rock dam, and the method can provide reference for design calculations of cut-off wall in reinforcement project of earth-rock dam.
