Abstract:

t was well known to the world that the dams were critical construction measures to regulate and control water resources, optimize the water distribution, and the important component of flood-prevention system. For the sake of providing beneficial basis for the study on monitoring of dam security, we summarized the research status of dam security monitoring from 3 aspects: the connotation, impact factors and development tendency. Combining with our practical experiences, the recommendations on dam security monitoring were suggested in this paper: (1) Automation, digitization and integration were the final development tendency of dam security monitoring; (2) Basic study should be combined with apply study, and the basic study need to serve apply study; (3) Basic studies need to pay much emphasis on the Reference from multi-fields, applying excellent study achievements from other fields to the monitoring of dam security, such as mathematics and computer fields; (4) New devices such as 3-d laser scanner should be popularized, and the costs of related elements should be decreased. Moreover, related equipments which could improve the monitoring precision need to be input more human and material resources in the R&D process, in order to increase the reliability of monitoring results.
