The invention discloses an
estuary dam geometrical morphology measuring method. The method includes the following steps that firstly, a prototype geologic model is determined according to measuring region geological data, a
physical model is established according to the
similarity theory of sedimentary physical
simulation, an experimental scheme is designed accordingly, an experiment is carried out on the basis of the experimental scheme and the
sedimentation process is controlled; secondly, the
sedimentation result is researched through a section
cutting method, the position of an
estuary dam is determined, length and width data of the
estuary dam and the extended distance of the lake shoreline are measured, a planar
distribution diagram of the estuary dam is drawn, and thickness data of the estuary dam are measured in combination with the section; thirdly,
linear correlation analysis is conducted on the obtained length-thickness and length-width data of the estuary dam; fourthly, modern
sedimentation estuary dam length and width data measured on the basis of
satellite photos are obtained,
statistical analysis is conducted on the modern sedimentation estuary dam length and width data, and a research area estuary dam length-width
empirical formula is established by synthesizing water tank
simulation and modern sedimentation measuring results. The method has the
advantage of being capable of guiding exquisite configuration
anatomy of a work area estuary dam and can be widely applied to the technical field of reservoir description.
