[Brief explanation of the drawings]

[0017] In order to more clearly describe the specific embodiments of the present invention or the technical solutions in the prior art, the following will briefly describe the drawings that need to be used in the description of the specific embodiments or the prior art. It should be apparent that the drawings in the following description are some embodiments of the present invention, and those skilled in the art can further obtain other drawings based on these drawings without exerting creative efforts. [Figure 1] 1 is a flowchart of a proposed method for simulating rapid sediment transport due to dam release according to one example embodiment. [Figure 2] In one example, a diagram comparing the simulation results of a method for simulating rapid sediment transport due to dam discharge proposed in an embodiment of the present invention with a simulation method without a superdiffusion term is shown. [Figure 3] 1 is a structural schematic diagram of a proposed device for simulating rapid sediment transport caused by dam discharge according to one exemplary embodiment; [Figure 4] 1 is a schematic diagram of a proposed hardware configuration of a computer device according to one exemplary embodiment; DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0018] The technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings.

[0019] The technical features according to the embodiments of the present invention described below may be combined with one another as long as they are not inconsistent with one another.

[0020] Many diffusion phenomena exist in nature, such as the movement of contaminants in soil, groundwater permeation, and turbulent flow. These diffusion phenomena do not satisfy the classical Fickian law of gradient diffusion and are called "anomalous" diffusion. Anomalous diffusion processes are essentially processes with temporal memory and spatial nonlocality. Because the definition of the integer-order derivative limit is local, integer-order diffusion equations cannot accurately describe this type of anomalous diffusion process. However, it has been proven that spatial fractional derivatives can accurately describe physical processes with memory, inheritance, and path-dependence.

[0021] In order to accurately simulate the rapid transport process of sediment from a dam, the present invention proposes a method, an apparatus, a computer device and a medium for simulating the rapid transport of sediment caused by dam discharge.

[0022] 1 is a flowchart of a proposed method for simulating rapid sediment transport due to dam discharge according to an exemplary embodiment. As shown in FIG. 1, the method includes the following steps S101 to S103.

[0023] Step S101: The discharge amount and downstream water level of the dam are acquired.

[0024] Specifically, the discharge flow rate includes the discharge flow velocity and sand content upstream of the dam.

[0025] Step S102: Determine the superdiffusion coefficient of a one-dimensional spatial fractional order advection-diffusion equation based on the discharge flow rate, downstream water level, and a pre-established superdiffusion coefficient library, where the one-dimensional spatial fractional order advection-diffusion equation includes a spatial fractional order derivative diffusion term.

[0026] Specifically, when the dam discharge and downstream water level are different, the corresponding superdiffusion coefficients of the one-dimensional spatial fractional-order advection-diffusion equation are different. The superdiffusion coefficient library consists of superdiffusion coefficients corresponding to different discharge and downstream water levels. Depending on the current dam discharge and downstream water level conditions, it is possible to find the same or similar superdiffusion coefficients in the superdiffusion coefficient library.

[0027] Step S103: Based on the superdiffusion coefficient and the one-dimensional spatial fractional-order advection-diffusion equation, a rapid transport path of sediment after dam release is constructed, and the rapid transport path is used to represent the rapid transport process of sediment after dam release.

[0028] For example, the finite difference method can be adopted to solve a one-dimensional spatial fractional order advection-diffusion equation to simulate the rapid sediment transport process under this condition.

[0029] In the rapid transport channel, the sudden flood wave after dam release causes rapid sediment movement. The sediment movement process after dam release is a superdiffusion phenomenon, and the classical one-dimensional advection-diffusion equation cannot accurately describe this superdiffusion phenomenon, i.e., it cannot accurately describe the rapid sediment transport process. According to the method provided in the embodiment of the present invention, the memory and inheritance properties of the spatial fractional derivative diffusion term are utilized to describe the superdiffusion phenomenon of sediment movement that changes over time and space. By simulating the sediment concentration at different locations during dam release and the time when the sand peak reaches a predetermined position, the rapid sediment transport process during dam release can be accurately described, providing a basis for dam sediment scheduling. Furthermore, the adoption of the one-dimensional advection-diffusion equation reduces the complexity of the simulation calculation and improves simulation efficiency.

[0030] In one example, in the above step S102, the superdiffusion coefficient library is established based on the historical discharge flow rate and historical downstream water level at each operating condition, and a one-dimensional spatial fractional-order advection-diffusion equation, specifically including the following steps:

[0031] First, obtain the historical discharge flow rate and historical downstream water level under each operating condition. Next, the hyperdiffusion coefficient for each operating condition is derived based on the historical discharge flow rate and historical downstream water level under each operating condition, as well as the one-dimensional spatial fractional-order advection-diffusion equation. Finally, a superdiffusion coefficient library is established based on the superdiffusion coefficients at each operating condition.

[0032] In one example, in the above step S103, the steps for constructing a rapid transport route for sediment after dam release are as follows.

[0033] First, the sediment concentration at a given location after dam discharge at different times is determined based on the hyperdiffusion coefficient and a one-dimensional spatial fractional-order advection-diffusion equation.

[0034] Specifically, the predetermined position can be set as needed, and may be a cross section near the downstream dam, or may be any notable position from the upstream to the center downstream of the dam.

[0035] Next, based on the sediment concentration, a rapid transport route for sediment after dam release is constructed.

[0036] Specifically, by obtaining the sediment concentration at a specific location at different times, it is possible to obtain the change in sediment concentration from upstream to downstream of the dam when the dam discharges, i.e., the rapid sediment transport process when the dam discharges.

[0037] In one example, a one-dimensional spatial fractional order advection-diffusion equation is expressed as follows:

number

number

[0038] In one possible implementation, the spatial fractional derivative diffusion term is:

number

[0039] In one example, a dam area free from the operating conditions of lateral sand-laden flow and riverbank collapse is selected, and multiple monitoring stations are installed near the upstream dam at the tail of the dam to monitor the discharge flow rate and sand content data of the upstream dam in real time and collect historical related data.

[0040] Considering that the sediment scheduling time is short and the erosion and deposition of the dam are in a relatively balanced state, the net exchange between suspended sediment and bed load sediment is ignored, and factors such as lateral sand-laden flow and riverbank collapse are not taken into account. A one-dimensional model of sediment transport under the corresponding discharge operating conditions is constructed. The control equation is as follows:

number

[0041] Figure 2 compares the simulation results of the method proposed in the embodiment of the present invention for simulating rapid sediment transport due to dam discharge with those of a simulation method without a superdiffusion term. At the initial time of dam discharge, sediment exhibits rapid transport, i.e., sediment concentration changes rapidly at the initial time of dam discharge. As shown in Figure 2, the simulation method proposed in the embodiment of the present invention can accurately capture the rapid sediment transport process near the initial time of upstream dam discharge. The sediment concentration changes rapidly, i.e., a small amount of sediment reaches a predetermined location downstream near the initial time. However, the simulation results obtained using a diffusion model without a superdiffusion term show that the sediment concentration is zero near the initial time. However, in the actual process, a small amount of sediment exists near the initial time of dam discharge. Therefore, the diffusion model without a superdiffusion term cannot describe the rapid sediment transport at the initial time. On the other hand, the width of the sand peak simulated using this method is wider than the width of the sand peak simulated using a diffusion model without a superdiffusion term, and the width of the sand peak is intended to represent the duration of sediment concentration higher than a predetermined sediment concentration. During sediment scheduling for a downstream dam, the duration of sediment scheduling is usually determined by the width of the sand peak of the sediment, i.e., the duration of sediment scheduling corresponds to this sand peak process. Therefore, when performing sediment scheduling for the sand peak simulated according to an embodiment of the present invention, the scheduling time is relatively long, and sediment can be discharged as completely as possible.
