During the operation period, the deformation of an ultra-high arch dam is affected by the large fluctuation of the reservoir water level. Under the dual coupling of the ultra-high dam and the complex water level conditions, the traditional variational analysis method cannot be sufficiently applied to its deformation analysis. The deformation analysis of the ultra-high arch dam, however, is very important in order to judge the dam safety state. To analyze the deformation law of different parts of an ultra-high arch dam, the panel data clustering theory is used to construct a Spatio-temporal characteristic model of dam deformation. In order to solve the difficult problem of the fluctuating displacement of dam deformation with water level effect, three displacement component indexes (absolute quantity, growing, and fluctuation) are proposed to characterize dam deformation. To further optimize the panel clustering deformation model, the objective weight coefficient of clustering comprehensive distance is calculated based on the CRITIC (CRiteria Importance Through Inter-criteria Correlation) method. The zoning rules of the ultra-high arch dam are established by using the idea of the CSP (Constraint Satisfaction Problem) index, and the complex water level of the reservoir is simulated in the whole process. Finally, the dynamic cluster analysis of dam deformation is realized. Through a case study, three typical working conditions including the rapid rise and fall of water level and the normal operation are calculated, and the deformation laws of different deformation zones are analyzed. The results show that the model can reasonably describe the deformation law of an ultra-high arch dam under different water levels, conveniently and intuitively select representative measuring points and key monitoring parts, effectively reducing the analysis workload of lots of measuring points, and improve the reliability of arch dam deformation analysis.

Abstract Geological conditions play a decisive role in the stability of arch dam engineering, and the asymmetric geological conditions of the abutment have a very negative impact on the safety of the arch dam. This article takes Lizhou arch dam as the research object, and determines that the arch dam is preliminarily affected by the geological asymmetric characteristics. Through the geomechanical model test method, the overload failure test of the Lizhou arch dam was carried out, and the resistance body, the instability deformation of the structural plane of the two dam abutments, and the influence of each structural plane on the dam body are obtained, and the safety factor is determined. According to the test results under the condition of asymmetric foundation of arch dam, for the structural plane which affects the geological asymmetry of the arch dam, the corresponding reinforcement measures are carried out. The feasibility of the reinforcement scheme is verified by the finite element method, and the safety factor after reinforcement is obtained. According to the results, it is suggested that some engineering measures can be taken to reduce the geological asymmetry between the two banks and ensure the safe and stable operation of the arch dam in the future.

The brittle failure finite element method is widely used in arch dam safety evaluation, but it also has some problems, the concrete strength criterion is different, the dam failure range is different. This article first introduces brittle failure constitutive relation and three strength criterions, then takes a high arch dam as an example to compute, obtains some conclusions that the relative failure range of foundation plane corresponds to blaxial strength criterion is slightly bigger than the result of uniaxial strength criterion, is almost the same as the result of triaxial strength criterion. Because the influence of the third principal stress is compressed stress to the dam crack is taken into account under multiaxial strength criterion, therefore using multiaxial strength criterion is more reasonable.
