Water Rock Interaction

During the reservoir operation process, the long-term security and stability of the bank slope is affected by dynamic response characteristics of its seismic action directly. Aimed at the typical bank slope existing in the actual reservoir environment, an experiment considering reservoir water level fluctuation and soaking-air-drying cyclic water-rock interaction has been designed and conducted while the cyclic loading test was performed in different water-rock cycles. Research results indicate the following: Firstly, in the process of water-rock interaction, the dynamic characteristics of sandstone show evident degradation trend, with the increase of the damping ratio and Poisson’s ratio and decrease of dynamic elastic modulus, and the former six water-rock cycle degradation effects are particularly obvious. Secondly, the numerical analog computation analysis of dynamic response in typical bank slope shows that as the water-rock interaction period is increased, the dynamic response of the slope hydro-fluctuation belt zone increases gradually, while the other parts weaken. Thirdly, under the long-term water-rock interaction process, the hydro-fluctuation belt zone gradually becomes a “soft layer” which is sensitive to the earthquake effect and dynamic response, resulting in a direct influence on long-term seismic performance of the bank slope. Therefore, it is necessary to make better protection for the bank slope hydro-fluctuation belt zone.

After the commencement of the Three Gorges hydropower project, the reservoir water level has been fluctuating by 30 m (145–175 m) annually. The stability of the bank slope has been highlighted since the reservoir water level has been repeated. Apart from that, the long-term effect of the water-rock interaction on the rheological and mechanical properties of the rock was not studied sufficiently. Therefore, a typical sandstone rock was brought from the Three Gorges reservoir area, to meet the purpose of this study. Then, a series of water-rock interaction tests were conducted to simulate the fluctuations in the reservoir water level. Based upon the experimental results, the following points were pointed out: 1) for the first three successive water-rock interaction cycles, the long-term strength of the rock was dramatically reduced. In contrast, the rate of reduction on the long-term strength of the rock was getting a steady state after six successive water rock interactions.2) At the failure stress level, the rock specimens exhibited similar characteristics under different water-rock interaction cycles. 3) The densely compacted micro structures of the sandstone rock were transformed into loose and porous state.

During the long-term reservoir operation, the seismic capability and dynamic response characteristics of the bank slope are of great importance to its safety evaluation content. Aimed at typical bank slopes, considering reservoir water level fluctuation and soaking-air drying cyclic interaction, an experiment has been designed and conducted. In addition, the cyclic loading test with different stress amplitudes was carried out in different water-rock cycles. The laboratory results indicate that (1) during the immersion-air dry circulation process, the damping ratio and damping coefficient of sandstone gradually increased while the dynamic elastic modulus decreased. It is obvious that the dynamic elastic modulus of sandstone decreases dramatically during the immersion-air dry circulation process, especially in the first six periods. Also, its variation curve fits with the logarithmic curve. (2) When the cyclic load stress amplitude increases from 10 MPa to 35 MPa, the damping ratio and coefficient of the rock sample gradually decreased while dynamic elastic modulus increased. each dynamic parameter shows a more obvious variation trend when the stress amplitude is lower than 25 MPa. (3) During the water-rock interaction process, the closely knit microstructure of rock gradually becomes loose and porous, which resulted in the degradation of macroscopic physical and mechanical properties of sandstone. (4) In the analysis of the seismic response of the bank slope, the actual water-rock interaction process and the seismic level of the bank slope should be more considered. To find out further accurate reflection in the earthquake resistance and dynamic response of the bank slope, it is necessary to select the reasonable dynamic parameter to carry out seismic research.

AbstractThe physical and mechanical properties of the reservoir bank slope are affected by the water–rock interaction. However, few studies considered the impact of long-term water–rock interaction on the evolution law of mesostructure. Therefore, in this study, the water–rock interaction test was conducted on a slightly weathered red-bed soft rock from the Three Gorges Reservoir area, considering the fluctuation in the reservoir water level. The corresponding pore structure parameters were measured and analyzed based on a scanning electron microscope (SEM) and digital image processing technology. The study showed that: (1) The pore size has been gradually increased, while the number of pores was increased initially and then decreased. Within 12 cycles, the maximum and average pore radius of the rock specimens was increased by 101.02% and 43.32%, respectively, and the porosity has been increased by 26.59%, whereas the number of pores decreased by 22.65%. This indicates the effect of water–rock interaction on the propagation of pores. (2) The pores were changed from oblate to slender by the water–rock interaction. The shape factor was decreased by about 15.79% within 12 cycles. In the meantime, the fractal dimension was increased from 1.20 to 1.28, and more complex structures of pores were observed. (3) The porosity evolution model for the red-bed soft rock was established based on the curve fitting technique. The results can be used as a reference to conceptualize the mesostructure damage of rocks under water–rock interaction.

Colluvial Landslide

Since the impoundment of the Three Gorges Reservoir (TGR) in June 2003, the fluctuation of the reservoir water level coupled with rainfall has resulted in more than 2500 landslides in this region. Among these instability problems, most colluvial landslides exhibit slow-moving patterns and pose a significant threat to local people and channel navigation. Advanced monitoring techniques are therefore implemented to investigate landslide deformation and provide insights for the subsequent countermeasures. In this study, the development pattern of a large colluvial landslide, locally named the Ganjingzi landslide, is analyzed on the basis of long-term monitoring. To understand the kinematic characteristics of the landslide, an integrated analysis based on real-time and multi-source monitoring, including the global navigation satellite system (GNSS), crackmeters, inclinometers, and piezometers, was conducted. The results indicate that the Ganjingzi landslide exhibits a time-variable response to the reservoir water fluctuation and rainfall. According to the supplement of community-based monitoring, the evolution of the landslide consists of three stages, namely the stable stage before reservoir impoundment, the initial movement stage of retrogressive failure, and the shallow movement stage with stepwise acceleration. The latter two stages are sensitive to the drawdown of reservoir water level and rainfall infiltration, respectively. All of the monitoring approaches used in this study are significant for understanding the time-variable pattern of colluvial landslides and are essential for landslide mechanism analysis and early warning for risk mitigation.

Water Rock Interaction

With the continuous construction of large-scale geotechnical engineering, more and more attention has been paid to the long-term stability of rock mass engineering, especially the problem of rock creep under the influence of water. Combined with the author’s previous research on the triaxial creep characteristics of sandstone under water-rock interaction, a nonlinear creep constitutive model was established to capture the degradation behavior of a sandstone rock due to cyclic wetting and drying of the reservoir water. Due to the limitations of the visco-elastoplastic model, a thorough modification was done to account the effect of the water-rock interaction on the mechanical degradation of the sandstone rock. Finally, the predicted results were proved to be in a good agreement with the experimental results. Moreover, the strong correlations between the predicted results and the experimental results show the effectiveness of the modified model to scrutinize the nonlinear creep behavior of sandstone rock. Relevant research results have important theoretical significance for the accurate prediction and effective control of the long-term stability of rock mass engineering under the influence of water-rock interaction.

Abstract The process of water rock interaction and the purification mechanism of mine water quality were not clear after being stored in underground reservoir. This study based on the analysis of the hydrochemical characteristics of the reservoir water samples and the characterization of the rock samples, combined with PHREEQC analysis, the mechanism of water quality purification of mine water was discussed. The results showed that the rocks in the underground reservoir had layered silicate structure and flaky kaolinite structure, with some irregular edges and micro cracks, and higher specific surface area and total pore volume. These characteristics made the rocks had a certain adsorption and removal capacity for heavy metal ions and other pollutants in the mine water. The water rock interaction, such as the dissolution of albite and halite, the precipitation of gypsum and kaolinite, and the cation exchange, resulted in the increase of the concentration of Na+ and the decrease of the concentration of Ca2+, Mg2+ and TDS in the outlet water. This study also showed that PHREEQC analysis can be used to analyze the water rock interaction of coal mine underground reservoir and obtained more detailed information.

Due to effect of reservoir water, the deformation mechanism of reservoir bank slope has a great of influence to the buildings which locate on the bank slope. Considering the changes of permeability coefficient of ground, the deformation characteristics of bank slope ground and pile are analyzed based on the method of pile-soil interaction under the condition that the reservoir water level changing speed is invariable. The results revealed that the larger horizontal displacement of the ground and piles happened when the ground has a smaller permeability coefficient, and the larger settlement of the ground and pile happened, especially the pile which has greater differential settlement when the permeability coefficient of ground is larger. The results have certain reference significance on the safety evaluation and design of buildings which locate on reservoir bank slope.

Reservoir Water Level Fluctuation

Reservoir water level is one important factor influencing the stability of landslides. The dynamic response of landslide stability under reservoir water level function and its features are analyzed using theoretical and numerical methods. The results show that, in terms of reservoir water level fluctuation and landslide permeability, the seepage filed of landslide can be divided into four types: lag behind impoundment(X-Ⅰ), lag behind drawdown(T-Ⅰ), synchronization with impoundment(X-Ⅱ) and synchronization with drawdown (T-Ⅱ). Under lag behind drawdown, at a certain rate of reservoir drawdown, the stability drops with the permeability of landslide. Under lag behind impoundment, with the rise of water level, the lower the permeability of landslide is, the more stable the landslide is. Under synchronization with impoundment or drawdown, the stability of landslide drops with reservoir impoundment and rises with reservoir drawdown.
