Description

Technical Field

[0001] This disclosure relates to a rapid prediction method for the deformation of high panel dams during operation based on intelligent agent models and gradient estimation techniques. This method is applicable to the field of safety evaluation and monitoring of panel dams, and can also provide technical ideas and references for the rapid prediction and monitoring evaluation of the operational performance of other types of dams. Background Technology

[0002] Deformation of high panel dams is an important indicator for design control and operation monitoring and evaluation. Among them, the maximum settlement deformation of the dam crest is a key focus in the project and a control indicator for the design and operation safety of panel dams.

[0003] Excessive deformation will cause cracks or damage to the panels of high-face dams, endangering the dam's seepage prevention system and threatening the overall stability of the dam. Excessive deformation may also lead to insufficient dam height and failure to meet flood control requirements.

[0004] In recent years, with the construction of a number of high panel dams, especially ultra-high panel dams over 200m, how to quickly and conveniently predict and evaluate their deformation during operation is crucial for the safety of panel dams.

[0005] Currently, the deformation prediction of panel dams mainly adopts numerical calculation methods, that is, deformation parameters are obtained by inverting experimental or monitoring data, and then the deformation of the panel dam at a certain moment is calculated. In addition, engineering empirical methods are also commonly used for deformation prediction, such as using 1% of the dam height as the control standard for maximum settlement deformation.

[0006] Numerical calculation methods have many drawbacks. First, they are slow and time-consuming, making it difficult to quickly predict the deformation of panel dams. Second, due to the difficulty in obtaining accurate calculation parameters, the calculated values ​​often have large errors compared to the actual values. In addition, the calculation methods and assumptions also reduce the reliability of the calculation results. The biggest drawback of directly using engineering experience methods is that the deformation prediction is too rough and the accuracy is not high, making it difficult to meet the requirements of dam monitoring and evaluation during operation in most cases.

[0007] With the commissioning and accumulation of measured data of high-faced concrete dams at home and abroad, there is an urgent need for a method that can quickly predict the deformation of high-faced concrete dams during operation based on simple, objective and easily obtainable dam parameters, without the need for complex tools or calculations. This method will significantly improve the efficiency and level of safety monitoring and safety evaluation of high-faced concrete dams, thereby improving the quality of operation and management of high-faced concrete dams throughout their entire life cycle and ensuring dam safety.
