Finite Element Simulation Analysis of Aqueduct by Auxiliary Pier Reinforcement by TANG Yang, LIN Jinxia, XIONG Yan

“…With an aqueduct as the engineering background,this paper establishes a finite element model of spatial entity by auxiliary pier reinforcement,analyzes the force of each construction stage before and after the aqueduct reinforcement with consideration to the material nonlinearity of concrete,and compares and analyzes the influence of different jacking forces on the reinforcement effect.Through calculation and analysis,the following conclusions can be drawn:①The structural stress, deformation and crack width of the aqueduct can be significantly reduced by auxiliary pier reinforcement method.②The reinforcement effect can be enhanced with a suitable jacking force during aqueduct reinforcement.③When the jacking force is gradually increased from zero,the vertical displacement of the aqueduct after reinforcement is reduced first and then increased,the maximum principal tensile stress of the aqueduct after jacking and reinforcement also shows a trend of decreasing first and then increasing.④The jacking force should not be too large.Otherwise,the upper edge of the aqueduct will easily crack at the mid-span position and its adjacent position.Comparative calculation and analysis of the jacking force is required before reinforcement construction.…”

Evaluation of Scheduling Schemes for Ecological Water Supplement of Rivers in Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area Based on MIKE 11 by GAO Huayong, ZHAO Bikui, GUO Xiaojuan, TAN Chao

“…To achieve joint scheduling of the ecological water supplement project and the estuarine sluice of the cross-boundary Yachong River in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area, the mathematical model of hydrodynamics and water quality of the one-dimensional river network based on MIKE 11 was constructed by considering the significant jacking role of the open sea tide level. In addition, different types of scheduling schemes were designed, including natural state scheme, current state scheme, and joint scheduling scheme, so as to evaluate the effect of each scheme in reducing pollutant concentration and improving water quality. …”

Flood Routing Simulation and Propagation Law Analysis in Three Gorges Reservoir Area by WANG Jue, ZHANG Hairong, SUN Zhenyu, ZHANG Mingliang

“…The Saint-Venant equation is discretized by the Preissmann four-point implicit difference scheme and then solved by the three-step solution method of the channel-junction-channel to build a one-dimensional hydrodynamic model of the Three Gorges Reservoir area.The simulated results of the flood routing process in flood seasons in 2020 and 2021 are in good agreement with the measured values.This indicates that the model can accurately calculate the flood routing process in the Three Gorges Reservoir area.In addition,the model is used to explore the flood propagation laws in the reservoir area.The results show that the high flood discharge from the upstream has a great effect on the rise in the water level at the reservoir tail,and the jacking effect of the water level at the dam site spreads to the vicinity of Cuntan Station.Under different flow conditions, it takes about 23~44 h for the flood in the reservoir area to evolve from Zhutuo to the dam site.The flood propagation time is negatively correlated with water level and positively correlated with peak discharge.The analysis of the water level-flow relationship at Cuntan Station shows that the simulated values are in good conformity with the measured ones, and the water level-flow curve of the flooding process at Cuntan Station is in a complex “rope-loop” shape.The results of this study can provide technical support for flood scheduling and forecasting at the stations in the reservoir area.…”
