Abstract

Abstract: The seepage analysis of earth-rock dams is required to define the seepage field as a community of saturated and unsaturated regions. The two complement each other. The motion characteristics of unsaturated seepage are relatively complex, and the influence factors are more than saturated seepage. In this paper, combined with engineering examples, the finite element numerical simulation is used to simulate the variation of the seepage field of the earth-rock dam in saturated and unsaturated seepage, and the wetting line, seepage flow and stress and strain inside the dam are obtained. The data results are reasonable and correct. It has certain reference value in the construction of anti-seepage system of earth-rock dam.
