  • More about Evolutionary Process of a Steep Rocky Reservoir Bank in a Dynamic Mechanical Environment


To prevent the collapse of dangerous rock masses on steep rocky reservoir banks, it is essential to design and conduct practical experiments to quantify the evolution processes and control them. This book generalizes the mechanical model of the Jianchuandong Dangerous Rock Mass project and details a series of experiments to study the evolution of a severely steep rocky reservoir bank. The results support a new method for determining the stability of dangerous rock masses on reservoir banks.

Preventing the collapse of dangerous rock masses on steep rocky reservoir banks is crucial to avoid casualties and property loss. To address this issue, it is essential to design and conduct practical experiments to quantify the evolution processes of reservoir banks and effectively control these dangerous rock masses. In this context, the Jianchuandong Dangerous Rock Mass project serves as a valuable case study. This book aims to generalize the mechanical model of the project and demonstrate how improved equipment can be utilized to measure the mechanical state transition under the continuous action of axial pressure.

The book provides detailed insights into a series of experiments conducted to study the evolution of a severely steep rocky reservoir bank. These experiments comprehensively consider the influence of hydraulic coupling, dry-wet cycles, axial pressure, and time-dependent effects. The results obtained from these experiments support the development of a new method for determining the stability of dangerous rock masses on reservoir banks.

Combining engineering principles, real data, experimental methods, and comprehensive results, this book offers a complete research method for investigating hydrogeology failure processes. It is particularly valuable for practitioners in hydropower engineering, engineering geology, and disaster protection. By understanding the mechanisms behind the evolution of reservoir banks and developing effective control strategies, this book contributes to the safety and sustainability of water resources.
