AI Technical Summary
In existing technologies, there is a lack of basis for monitoring the deformation of concrete dams under flood risk. In particular, when the reservoir water level rises rapidly, it is difficult to monitor the dam deformation rate in a timely manner, which may lead to exceeding the planned deformation monitoring indicators and affecting dam safety.

Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of concrete dam deformation monitoring, and specifically to a method for determining dual control indicators for concrete dam deformation that takes into account flood control risks. Background Technology
[0002] Deformation monitoring indicators are crucial for evaluating and monitoring dam safety. Since the low-probability method of typical monitoring effect quantities qualitatively relates the effect quantities generated by load combinations detrimental to strength and stability, and estimates monitoring indicators based on past monitoring data, when long-term monitoring data is available and unfavorable load combinations are actually encountered, the monitoring indicators formulated based on the low-probability method of typical monitoring effect quantities have a strong theoretical basis and are highly operable. Therefore, since Wu Zhongru proposed the low-probability method of typical monitoring effect quantities for formulating monitoring indicators, many scientific and technological workers have successively adopted the low-probability method to formulate corresponding monitoring indicators based on actual dam engineering monitoring data. Existing literature research indicates that the probability of failure or failure is generally determined based on engineering experience or project level, currently often taking 1% or 5%. However, this value lacks a basis. In fact, when designing dam projects, it is necessary to conduct specialized demonstrations to determine the corresponding characteristic water levels, combining data such as project level and different probability flood standards. Obviously, using the flood control risk determined through specialized demonstrations corresponding to the project level as the failure or failure probability value for the aforementioned low-probability method has a stronger engineering basis.
[0003] When upstream floods arrive, the reservoir rises rapidly above the flood control limit, causing the dam deformation to increase rapidly as well. Although the current dam deformation monitoring has not yet exceeded the planned deformation monitoring indicators, if the deformation rate increases too quickly, on the one hand, the dam deformation will not be able to keep up with the changes, and on the other hand, an excessively high deformation rate may easily cause the dam deformation monitoring to exceed the planned deformation monitoring indicators. Therefore, in order to monitor the safety status of the dam, it is essential to formulate dam deformation rate monitoring indicators in addition to formulating dam deformation monitoring indicators. Summary of the Invention

[0038] A method for determining dual control indicators for concrete dam deformation considering flood control risks includes the following steps:
[0039] S1. Determination of deformation monitoring indicators based on the low probability method, including the following steps:
[0040] S101. Using measured data as the monitoring sequence, establish a sample of typical effect sizes.
[0041] S102. Assume a sample distribution and perform tests to obtain the sample distribution function. Generally, statistical test methods are used to determine the distribution, such as the AD method or the KS method.
[0042] S103. Using the design flood control risk as the failure probability, the deformation monitoring index of the concrete dam is obtained using the low-probability method. When formulating the concrete dam deformation monitoring index using the low-probability method of typical monitoring effect quantities, the following formula is used:
[0043]
[0044] In the formula: [δ I [] represents the deformation monitoring index, in mm; δ represents the monitored deformation amount, in mm; F represents the sample distribution function of typical monitoring effect. and σ X α represents the mean and standard deviation of the monitoring effect sample space under unfavorable load combinations, respectively; α is the failure probability, taken as the design flood control risk.
[0045] S2. When upstream floods arrive, the reservoir water level rises rapidly from the flood control limit, causing a rapid increase in dam deformation. Therefore, flood control calculations are performed based on the design flood standard to obtain the reservoir water level change curve. Because the water level rises rapidly in a short period during floods, the temperature and time-dependent components of dam deformation show small fluctuations. Therefore, using the water pressure component from the dam deformation statistical model, the change curve of the water pressure component during the rapid water level rise is calculated, and the rate of change of the water pressure component is calculated. The maximum value of the rate of change of the water pressure component is taken as the deformation rate monitoring index under the design flood standard.
[0046] The formulation of deformation rate monitoring indicators considering flood control risks includes the following steps:
[0047] S201. Determine the design flood control risks.
[0048] The design flood risk of a dam is determined based on its flood control function and scale.
[0049] S202. Flood control calculations were performed in conjunction with the design flood standard to obtain the reservoir water level change curve.
[0050] When using the flood hydrograph at the design flood frequency as the inflow and the flood control limit level as the starting level for flood regulation calculations, the following conditions should be met:
[0051]
[0052] In the formula: Q1 is the inflow rate at the beginning of the calculation period, m 3 / s; Q2 is the inbound flow rate at the end of the calculation period, m 3 / s; q1 is the discharge flow rate at the beginning of the calculation period, m 3 / s; q2 is the discharge flow rate at the end of the calculation period, m 3 / s; V1 is the initial reservoir storage volume during the calculation period, in m 3 V2 represents the reservoir's water storage at the end of the calculation period, in meters. 3 Δt is the calculation period, h; q is the discharge flow rate, m. 3 / s; n×b is the total weir width, m; ε is the lateral contraction coefficient; m is the flow coefficient; g is the gravitational acceleration; H0 is the head of the advancing water, m; V represents the reservoir capacity, m.3 Z represents the upstream water level, in meters (m).
[0053] Using equation (2), flood control calculations are performed to calculate the downstream flow rate process line q(t) and the upstream water level process line Z(t).
[0054] The upstream water depth process line H(t) is obtained by subtracting the foundation elevation from the upstream water level Z at each time point.
[0055] S203. Establishment of statistical model and regression analysis to calculate the change curve of water pressure component during the rapid rise of water level.
[0056] The statistical model for dam deformation consists of water pressure components, temperature components, and time-dependent components, namely:
[0057]
[0058] Where: δ H δ is the water pressure component; T For temperature components; δ θ a is the time-dependent component; a0 is the constant term; a i Here are the regression coefficients for the water pressure component, i = 1 to 4; H i The value is the i-th power of the upstream water depth on the day of observation. The modeling data sequence is based on the i-th power of the upstream water depth on the first observation day; b i is the regression coefficient for the temperature component, i = 1–4; t is the cumulative number of days from the observation date to the initial measurement date; t0 is the cumulative number of days from the first observation date to the initial measurement date in the modeling data sequence; c i θ is the regression coefficient of the time-dependent component, i = 1 to 3; θ is the cumulative number of days from the observation date to the initial measurement date t divided by 100; θ0 is the cumulative number of days from the first observation date to the initial measurement date of the modeling data sequence t0 divided by 100.
[0059] Based on the deformation monitoring data, the regression coefficients were obtained by stepwise regression. The total duration of the entire flood control calculation was used as the modeling data sequence. The upstream water depth H1 at the first observation time was taken as the water depth corresponding to the starting water level. The change curve δ of the water pressure component during the rapid rise of the water level was calculated using equation (3). H (t).
[0060] S204. Determination of Deformation Rate Monitoring Index: The rate of change of water pressure component is calculated, and the maximum value of the rate of change of water pressure component is taken as the deformation rate monitoring index under the design flood standard.
[0061] Taking the first derivative of the water pressure component in equation (3), the rate of change of the water pressure component is:
[0062]
[0063] Taking a certain Class II large-scale water conservancy project as an example, it mainly consists of a concrete arch dam, an open spillway, and deep discharge holes. The design flood standard for the main structures such as the dam and spillway is once every 100 years, the check flood standard is once every 1000 years, and the flood limit water level is 643m.
[0064] Radial displacement of arch dams is a more effective indicator of dam safety. This radial displacement is primarily monitored using a plumb line system, arranged as follows: Figure 2 As shown.
[0065] Therefore, deformation dual monitoring indicators were proposed for typical radial displacement measuring points (PL1-3, PL2-3, PL3-3).

[0067] The radial horizontal displacement of three measuring points at the top of the dam from October 2, 2016 to October 29, 2020 was used as the monitoring sequence. Since there were few annual maximum values in the monitoring sequence, the maximum values of each quarter were used as the typical effect sample. The sample mean and standard deviation are shown in Appendix 1.
