Abstract EN
After the Wenchuan earthquake in 2008, the Zipingpu concrete faced rockfill dam (CFRD) was found slabs dislocation between different stages slabs and the maximum value reached 17 cm.
This is a new damage pattern and did not occur in previous seismic damage investigation.
Slabs dislocation will affect the seepage control system of the CFRD gravely and even the safety of the dam.
Therefore, investigations of the slabs dislocation’s mechanism and development might be meaningful to the engineering design of the CFRD.
In this study, based on the previous studies by the authors, the slabs dislocation phenomenon of the Zipingpu CFRD was investigated.
The procedure and constitutive model of materials used for finite element analysis are consistent.
The water elevation, the angel, and the strength of the construction joints were among major variables of investigation.
The results indicated that the finite element procedure based on a modified generalized plasticity model and a perfect elastoplastic interface model can be used to evaluate the dislocation damage of face slabs of concrete faced rockfill dam during earthquake.
The effects of the water elevation, the angel, and the strength of the construction joints are issues of major design concern under seismic loading.
