The Analysis of Three Dimensional FEM for Interaction of the Gravity-arch Dam and Complex Ground at Geheyan,Qingjiang River

This paper introduces the analysis of three dimensional finite element method for the gravity-arch dam building on the complex ground. The foundation rock of dip and strain-slip, three faults, two weak intercalations and etc. arc considered in this calculation model. Water static pressure, gravity of dam, uplift, temperature stress and so on are computed, including three dimensional osmotic and temperature fields in the foundation. The range of calculation model is about 1400×900×600m2 . There are 1845 elements of all kinds, 3280 nodes in the network of finite element. The superlax iterative method is used to solve, and three dimensional perspective and software of after treatment are applied in analyses. The dimension of this computation is large, various results of treating complex problems are reasonable. The important basis has applied to designing unit. The computation is important practical significance for Geheyan Dam which is being built.
