Abstract:Piping, erosion at the contact of flowing soil, and leaching damage pose a serious leakage risk to earth-rock dams in the siltstone regions. With increasing reservoir operation time, seepage phenomena commonly occur in earth-rock dams, leading to progressively severe damage to the dam body. To understand the distribution of seepage in an earth-rock dam, including its location and magnitude, an imaging analysis of the dam structure is necessary. This involves determining the leakage positions and the underlying… Show more
