Description
Summary:碩士 === 淡江大學 === 土木工程研究所 === 82 === In this study, a preliminary investigation on hydraulic drawdown and seismic stability condition os an earth dam was presented. Theoretic srudies was conducted using finite element code FEADAM84 and hypervolic model in cooperation with laboratory triaxial data fram both drained and undrained tests. The stress destribution and stability variation along the dam were analyzed in the cases of 1. end of construction, 2. full reservoir condition, 3. rapid hydraulic drawdown and 4. seismic impaction. Effects on the seepage though the earth dam were neglected while the dynamic interactions were simulated by using pseudo-static analysis. The results of the study show that the general stability conditons at the end of construction and full reservoir condition as well as the individual case in rapid hydraulic drawdown and seismic impaction, are on the safe side. However, surface portion of the embankment may encount damage when seismic condition and hydraulic drawdown occur simultaneously.
