AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

In the seepage simulation process of earth-rock dams, in view of the complex and uncertain geological conditions and fractures, it is difficult to establish accurate geological and fracture models, so the actual geological conditions are often greatly simplified, which will obviously greatly reduce the simulation The precision of the result

In addition, the current method commonly used in seepage calculation is the finite element analysis method, which equates the temperature field to the seepage field, or uses Darcy's law to solve the seepage field, which has many application restrictions and cannot effectively and accurately determine the position of the wetting surface

For the simulation of the wetting free surface of pressureless seepage, the finite element fixed mesh method is mostly used. Although this method has good adaptability to complex areas, because the position of the wetting free surface is to be obtained and unknown in advance, it needs to be determined iteratively. The element fixed grid method affects the calculation accuracy of the seepage field
