Abstract

In slope engineering or underground power generation tunnels and other underground projects, the control of engineering seepage is an inevitable problem in water conservancy construction. In order to study the impact of seepage on river gates, a certain river gate was selected as the research object. Establish a three-dimensional finite element model to solve the seepage field in the foundation, simulate the distribution of pore water pressure and seepage velocity in each sluice foundation, analyze the changes in pore water pressure gradient and the impact of anti-seepage measures on the seepage field, and evaluate whether the seepage amount and slope meet the stability requirements of the sluice. The results indicate that the water gate is an important component of hydraulic structures, and if leakage occurs, it will seriously affect the structural stability and safety of the water gate. The measures can effectively prevent seepage, reduce the maximum head distribution, and also take into account the structural stability of the water gate itself.
