Dam Risk Identification Method Based on EAHP-EWM-TOPSIS by ZHAN Mingqiang, CHEN Bo, TIAN Jufei, HU Zelin, PAN Xinmei

“…To address the uncertainty and fuzziness of dam risk indicators, this paper proposes a dam risk identification model based on the EAHP-EWM-TOPSIS game combination model.This is to determine the subjective and objective weights of risk evaluation indicators by extension analytic hierarchy process and entropy weight method respectively.Meanwhile, the game theory is introduced to determine the optimal combination weight, and a weighted standardized decision matrix is constructed.Then, the TOPSIS method is employed to calculate the relative proximity between each risk factor and the ideal solution as the basis for ranking risk factors to identify the main risk sources of dams.The engineering example shows that the main risk factors affecting the safe service of the dams are dam seepage and cross-bank seepage, with the relative proximity of 0.712 7 and 0.855 2 respectively.The identified main risk factors are consistent with the actual engineering situation, which verifies the model effectiveness.The differentiation degree of this model is more obvious than other models, providing an effective basis for dam reinforcement and risk management.…”

Investigation of the Models of Flow through Fractured Rock Masses Based on Borehole Data by Long Tan, Wei Xiang, Jin Luo, Qingbing Liu, Xu Zuo

“…These relationships were then used to establish a model for estimating the permeability coefficient of rock mass that takes into account the influence from the confining pressure on the seepage flow. The proposed model can reduce the number of hydraulic tests which are time consuming and very costly and allow the determination of change in the permeability coefficient throughout the borehole. …”

Experimental Study on Curtain Grouting with Large Hole Spacing and Deep Holes in the Panlong Lead-Zinc Mine by TAO Wangxiong, FENG Yuanyu, LI Xijia, ZHANG Aiheng

“…In the upper reaches of the Datangxia Water Control Project,the high-pressure head formed by water storage will increase the water inflow in the Panlong lead-zinc mine to a certain extent and thus affect the safety of underground production.In order to eliminate the adverse effects brought by water storage,two anti-seepage curtains are planned to be built on the east and west sides of the mine.In addition,to provide reasonable technical parameters for the actual grouting construction,this paper carries out the grouting test at a suitable position on the axis of the curtain.The test results show that:① The double-row grouting with 3 m row spacing and 6 m hole spacing can basically meet the anti-seepage standard of curtain design when arranged in a plum blossom shape;② cement clay slurry can be applied in dealing with special sections such as large karst caves and wide fissures in karst areas;③ in terms of the vertical heterogeneity of karst development,the bottom elevation of hanging curtain with deep holes in karst areas should enter the aquitard,with a depth of not less than 10 m.The results of the grouting test provide a reference for the design and construction of curtain grouting with large hole spacing and deep holes in karst areas.…”
