More and more high dams with huge reservoirs have been built in China in recent years. A lot of research work on the causes of cracking in galleries of low concrete dams has been carried out at present, while studies on that of high concrete dams are less with the lack of systematic cognition. Based on that, the research on high concrete dams is conducted in this paper, using the method of finite element simulation. It is proven that self-weight action has more influence on the stress of arch crests of galleries existing in high concrete dams, especially the galleries whose overlying concrete

The construction of double-curvature arch dams is an attractive solution from an economic viewpoint due to the reduced volume of concrete necessary for their construction as compared to conventional gravity dams.

A new concept for establishing the damage model for high concrete dams under earthquakes based on damage mechanics is presented in this paper. Unlike the conventional approach of considering the residual deformation by means of plastic-damage coupling, the proposed approach relates the degraded apparent elastic moduli of loading and unloading directly to the material experimental data. As such, the nonlinear analysis of the seismic response of dam-foundation systems is simplified and more reasonable, with no recourse to plastic-damage coupling.
