Abstract Drought is one of the major natural disasters affecting the development of economies and society. Drought early warning is the primary step and most important non-engineering measure for drought relief. This paper took Yuqiao Reservoir in Tianjin as a case study and analysed inter-annual changes of the drought limit water level. First, the causality between variables in the water supply–demand system was analysed, and a structural diagram of water sources allocation was drawn. Coupled with the parameters and a structural diagram, a system dynamics (SD) model of the water supply volume was established. Secondly, simulation results were tested to ensure that the model was valid. The water supply volume from 2003 to 2020 was simulated by using the model. Finally, based on the inflow process and the water supply volume, the drought limit water level was calculated. The results showed the water supply volume of Yuqiao Reservoir has changed remarkably. The drought limit water levels in 2003–2012 and in 2016–2020 were 16.70 m and 16.30 m, respectively: a difference of 0.40 m. The regulation curve of guarantee for water supply during 2016–2020 is significantly lower than that of 2003–2012. This research is of great significance for drought resistance, disaster mitigation and reservoir management.

In order to research the relationship between the life of hull with different structure and the reliability while using, a life estimation method for hull based on test was proposed. By assuming that the hull life span satisfied the Weibull distribution, with zero-failure data, confidence limit γ and reliability R, the confidence lower limit of reliable life were given according to test data of the hull life span. If the lower limit of the shape parameters of the Weibull distribution were known, this method can accumulate all of zero-failure data to increase the analysis presion of reliability greatly. At last, using this method, under the hull reliability R and the confidence γ, the confidence lower limit of reliable life with the hull structures as steel, titanium alloy and aluminum alloy were computed. The results indicate that the method is easy to compute and very convenient for engineering application.
