Journal ArticleDOI
Hydropower in China at present and its further development
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors presented the general condition of Three Gorges project as well as the new mode of hydropower development of ThreeGorges Project Corporation, i.e., cascade development.
Journal ArticleDOI
Settlement analysis of the Shuibuya concrete-face rockfill dam
TL;DR: In this article, the Shuibuya CFRD is studied on the basis of in situ settlement-monitoring records and displacement back-analysis, and the deformation in the next 3 years is predicted based on back analysis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Modeling the fragmentation of rock grains using computed tomography and combined FDEM
TL;DR: In this article, the authors used the combined finite and discrete element method (FDEM) to simulate realistically shaped rock grains under single particle axial compression and found that the dominant fracture mechanisms are related to the grain morphology.
Journal ArticleDOI
Bivariate distribution of shear strength parameters using copulas and its impact on geotechnical system reliability
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the effect of copulas for constructing the bivariate distribution of shear strength parameters on system reliability of geotechnical structures and developed an implementation procedure of system reliability analysis using direct Monte Carlo simulation (MCS).
Journal ArticleDOI
Modeling the particle breakage of rockfill materials with the cohesive crack model
Gang Ma,Wei Zhou,Xiaolin Chang +2 more
TL;DR: In this article, a combined finite-discrete element method was developed to simulate the breakage of irregularly shaped particles in granular geomaterials, e.g., rockfill.
