Dynamic Response Simulation of the Slope Triggered by Fluctuating Pressure during High Dam Flood Discharge

The problem of slope vibration induced by flood discharge of high dams cannot be ignored. In this paper, this problem is simplified to be the relationship among the fluctuating pressures, the inherent properties of the slope system, and its dynamic responses. The characteristics of fluctuating press...

description The problem of slope vibration induced by flood discharge of high dams cannot be ignored. In this paper, this problem is simplified to be the relationship among the fluctuating pressures, the inherent properties of the slope system, and its dynamic responses. The characteristics of fluctuating pressures in the plunge pool during flood discharge are analyzed by the hydraulic model test. And a numerical slope model consisting of the finite element domain and the PML domain is established to study the inherent characteristics and vibration responses by numerical simulation. The results show that the flow fluctuation in plunge pool is a continuous and stable random vibration process. And the fluctuating pressures on the bottom area of the plunge pool are greater than that of the sidewall, but the fluctuation phenomenon at the sidewall is more intense. In addition, the slope displacement vibration intensity caused by fluctuating pressures is small, only at the micron level. The fluctuating pressures on the bottom area of the plunge pool are the dominant factor affecting the kinetic energy density distribution of the slope. This work provides a simple and efficient method for the study of slope vibration induced by high dam flood discharge.
