Application of Finite Element Method in Structure Analysis for Inclined Clay-Core Wall Earth Dam

Abstract:

This paper adopts universal finite element calculation software to carry out simulation analysis for inclined clay-core wall earth dam of Hongxing reservoir, computer is applied in design and analysis of inclined clay-core wall earth dam. Variation law of inclined clay-core wall earth dam’s stress and displacement in construction process and operational process is researched. The research results are shown: inclined clay-core wall earth dam of Hongxing reservoir is economic and reasonable, structure is safe and reliable, and every index meets the requirements for design.
