The Comparison of Different Degree of Convexity and 3D Modeling of Involute Hyperbolic Arch Dam

Because of good quality of compressive resistance,the hyperbolic arch dam is being increasingly applied to engineering projects.In order to satisfy the needs of compressive resistance under the conditions of high water pressure,a stress analysis is required for the dam.During the stress analysis process however,due to the complexity of the three-dimensional modeling,it is very hard to form a model.Therefore,the stress analysis process is a barrier for the arch dam.In this article,based on the research of the new line-type arch dam,a mathematical model in different degree of convexity conditions of the dam is established;using the C++ language program,a computer three-dimensional model simulation is realized on AutoCAD.The accurate three-dimensional model is providing a finite element optimization design of the involute hyperbolic arch dam for the next step.
