Water and Sediment Process Variation in Jingjiang River in the Middle Reaches of the Yangtze River and Response Analysis of Flow Capacity of Three Outlets by SHEN Jian, YUAN Song

“…The Jingjiang reach of the middle reaches of the Yangtze River is connected to Dongting Lake through three outlets,forming an extremely complex and far-reaching relationship between the rivers and lakes.The operation of the Three Gorges Project has changed the natural water and sediment process in the Jingjiang River downstream of the dam.This leads to “flattening” flood processes in the main stream,extended middle water period,and an increase in low flow,which has promoted the continuous response of the three outlets to the above water and sediment conditions.Meanwhile,this paper employs a series of long-term measured hydrological consolidation data and river channel terrain observation results from nearly 70 years.Based on this,the response characteristics of the three outlets to the water and sediment variation process of the Jingjiang River are analyzed,and the flow and sediment diversion,river regime,and erosion and sedimentation evolution laws in the entrance area are summarized.The results show that in the same inflow conditions before and after the operation of the Three Gorges Project,the diversion ratio of three outlets decreases,and the sediment diversion corresponds to the sediment from the upstream branch city.Additionally,the sediment diversion ratio continues its gradually increasing trend.After the impoundment and operation of the Three Gorges Reservoir,the riverbed of three outlets is generally in a state of erosion,with a total erosion amount of 51.47 million m³ from 2003 to 2011 and 99 million m³ from 2011 to 2016.The entrance areas have been expanded,but the actual flow capacity has not been significantly improved.…”

Constitutional and normative position of Belgrade as an obstacle in the exercise of local democracy by Jerinić Jelena

“…In this paper, the author's intention is to show that the constitutional and legal position of the City of Belgrade, within the framework of a single-level and uniform system of local self-government, among other issues, prevents the implementation of various mechanisms of local democracy, as regulated by Serbian laws. Trapped in such a system, Belgrade and its authorities remain completely distant from citizens. …”

Investigation and Application of Water-Saving Monitoring Technology in Public Institutions by WANG Kang, ZHENG Yongjie, ZHANG Zhen, TANG Yanping, SONG Wenhao, GUO Xiaoming

“…Considering the characteristics of water use and the current situation of water facilities in public institutions,this study comprehensively employs the Internet of Things (IoT),cloud deployment,databases,three-dimensional (3D) visualization,and other advanced techniques to create a water-saving reconstruction scheme with integrated software and hardware for public institutions.Therefore,a smart water management platform for public institutions is built to implement advanced water-saving concepts and improve the water management level.The main research results are as follows:① By intelligent remote monitoring equipment,the multiclass water measurement network is designed to realize the fine collection of zonal water use data;② this study designs a reconstruction scheme of water facilities and explores the utilization mode of unconventional water sources to improve the utilization efficiency of water resources;③ multiple algorithms and statistical methods are used to analyze the time series of water use data,and thus this study realizes the analysis of pipeline network leakage and damage,identification of water use anomalies,and water-saving statistical analysis,and the investigation of water use laws;④ the platform with functions of monitoring and early warning is established to achieve real-time remote monitoring of water use,statistical analysis of historical water use,and identification and warning of pipe network leakage,so as to detect water anomalies in time and save water.The research results are first applied to the construction of the water-saving institution of the Pearl River Water Resources Commission to build a benchmark for the construction of water-saving institutions in the southern region.On the basis of application experience,the comprehensively integrated monitoring technology for water-saving in public institutions is developed,which provides a new idea for public institutions to save water.…”

Triaxial Tests on Dry-wet Cycle and Creep Behavior of High-fill Coarse-grained Soil by WU Guoli, JI Binbin, LIANG Junjun, HUANG Zhongchun, XIONG Tanqing

“…It also evaluates the long-term strength and deformation laws. Key conclusions are presented as follows: ① The strength of coarse-grained soil gradually decreases with an increase in the number of dry-wet cycles. ② When the number of dry-wet cycles <italic>n</italic>≤3, coarse-grained soil samples first shrink and then dilate; when <italic>n</italic> &gt;3, coarse-grained soil only undergoes shear deformation. ③ The peak deviating stress of coarse-grained soil decreases gradually with the increase in the number of dry-wet cycles, and the higher the confining pressure, the greater the effect of dry-wet cycles on the damage and deterioration of the shear strength of coarse-grained soil. ④ The long-term strength of coarse-grained soil is lower than that of shear failure strength. …”
