Anti-Scour and Sedimentation Control in Flood Discharge Channels
[Journal Article]ZHOU QI-Haihe Water Resources2026, No.07

Abstract:Bends of flood channels and areas near diversion projects are prone to varying degrees of erosion and siltation after floods.The state has invested massive funds to support post-disaster reconstruction.Analysis of post-disaster channel erosion and siltation reveals that some river sections show inner bank erosion and outer bank deposition,some sections experience channel bending deformation and elevated flood water levels due to erosion and bank collapse,and some sections form vortices and scour pits due to sudden flow changes,even causing uneven inlet gate flow distribution.This paper considers that the sudden changes in flow velocity and direction caused by deflected flow in the channel,along with changes in river sediment concentration,are the main influencing factors for the formation of erosion and siltation phenomena in flood channels.On this basis,countermeasures and suggestions for preventing erosion and siltation disasters in flood channels and control projects from the source are proposed.

[Journal Article]ZHAO Xiaojie, JIANG Yunpeng, YANG Jie-Haihe Water Resources2026, No.z1

Abstract:With the intelligent transformation of water resources management,the scientific determination and precise monitoring of ecological flow have become crucial to ensuring river and lake ecological security.Taking Huangcaoba Reservoir in Yunnan Province as the research object,this paper systematically investigates ecological flow determination and monitoring informatization application,with comprehensive consideration of aquatic ecosystem stability,water environment quality,and downstream domestic and production water demands.Through multiple-scheme comparison and envelope calculation using the Tennant method,R2-Cross method,ecological hydraulic method,and 7Q10 method,the results indicate that,to meet hydraulic habitat standards in different periods,the recommended ecological flow is 1.58 m³/s for the wet season(June-November,accounting for 30%of the multi-year average flow at the dam site)and 0.79 m³/s for the dry season(December-May of the following year,accounting for 15%of the multi-year average flow at the dam site).Aiming at the difficulty of precise reservoir dispatching according to natural inflow,a monitoring system covering information perception,communication network,and application management platform is established.This system integrates technologies including radar velocimeter online monitoring,Beidou satellite communication,and video surveillance,realizing real-time monitoring,compliance analysis,and abnormal alarm functions for discharged flow.The research findings not only establish scientific discharge standards,but also achieve closed-loop control of discharged flow through informatization means,providing strong support for scientific management of basin ecological flow and optimal reservoir dispatching.

[Journal Article]CHEN Lin, WANG Zhe-Haihe Water Resources2026, No.z1

Abstract:Sand and gravel materials are one of the main materials for water conservancy projects,and their accurate unit price calculation is key to investment control in project budget preparation.To study the pricing of sand and gravel materials in hub projects,this paper takes a reservoir project in Hunan Province as a practical case and conducts a systematic calculation study on the comprehensive unit price of sand and gravel materials.Strictly following the quota pricing specifications for water conservancy projects,and combining with actual working conditions of on-site extraction,processing,transportation,and loss of the project,the unit price of sand and gravel materials is explicitly broken down into cost components including overburden removal,raw material extraction and transportation,crushing,and finished product transportation.Through the process unit price method,the unit price calculation of sand and gravel materials for this reservoir project is calculated.Finally,the calculated unit price of manually self-extracted sand and gravel is compared with the direct purchase price from material yards to better control project investment.The calculation method and results of this case study can serve as a reference for the unit price calculation of sand and gravel materials and project cost control in similar water conservancy hub projects.

Key Points for Flood Control Assessment in Reconstruction Project of Irrigation-Drainage Dual-Purpose Pumping Station
[Journal Article]LI Mengyu, CHEN Yuqi, WANG Wentao-Haihe Water Resources2026, No.z1

Abstract:Reconstruction projects of irrigation-drainage dual-purpose pumping stations usually involve dike-crossing construction,which will adversely affect dike safety and river flood discharge.To systematically identify key technical points for flood control assessment of such projects,this paper takes the Chaodong Pumping Station Renovation and Reconstruction Project on the left dike of Chaobai New River as an example.Under the 50-year flood control standard,the design water level is calculated using the steady non-uniform flow method,local scour depth under drainage and flood discharge conditions are computed using the Zhang Ruijin formula,and dike seepage and slope stability analyses are carried out.Meanwhile,the compliance of the project with relevant planning and risks including dike breaking during construction period,foundation pit excavation,and flood emergency rescue are assessed.The results indicate that no scour occurs in the approach channel under drainage conditions,while the scour depth on the floodplain under flood discharge conditions is 1.08 m,requiring rigid protection measures.Dike stability meets code requirements of relevant specifications.With the implementation of special construction schemes,deformation monitoring,and dewatering control measures,the impact of the project on dike and flood emergency rescue is controllable.This analysis case can provide technical references for flood control assessment of similar irrigation-drainage pumping station projects involving river construction.

[Journal Article]XU Min, LUO Qihua, ZHANG Libin et al.-Haihe Water Resources2026, No.07

Abstract:Concrete erosion deterioration under high sulfate environments is relatively severe.This paper explores the effects of different addition methods of polyester fiber(PF),basalt fiber(BF),and U-type expansive agent(UEA)on the sulfate erosion resistance of concrete by designing indoor sulfate immersion-wet-dry cycle tests.The changes in concrete specimen appearance,mass loss,and pore structure parameters are analyzed,and the sulfate erosion resistance characteristics of different specimens under different erosion cycles are evaluated to reveal the deterioration laws under wet-dry cycle conditions.The erosion mechanism of sulfate on crack-resistant concrete is analyzed from both macro and micro perspectives,and the mechanism by which fiber-UEA co-mixing improves the sulfate erosion resistance of concrete is elucidated.The results show that both single fiber addition and co-mixing of fiber with expansive agent can improve the macro and micro performance of concrete under sulfate wet-dry cycle conditions.Concrete under sulfate wet-dry cycle action is mainly subjected to two types of damage:physical erosion and chemical erosion.Co-mixing of fiber and UEA can significantly improve the erosion resistance of concrete,and its sulfate erosion resistance is superior to that of plain concrete and single-fiber concrete.

[Journal Article]ZHAO Jinxiang, ZHOU Zheng, PAN Yi-Haihe Water Resources2026, No.05

Abstract:The reservoir in the Yellow River Diversion Plain in Binzhou City is an important drinking water source,and the rate of total nitrogen exceeding the standard has remained high for many years.The phosphorus-containing substances in the Yellow River diversion water are rich and absorbed in sediment,and the total phosphorus content in the overlying water of the reservoir is low,which effectively curbed the eutrophication process of the reservoir to some extent.However,in recent years,there have been a large number of regional algae blooms in reservoirs in summer.Through the analogy analysis of similar reservoirs in the province,this paper concludes that there are ecological risks such as accelerated eutrophication,abnormal algae reproduction and unhealthy development of water ecosystem in severe siltation,low water level operation and hot summer,which further affect the water supply quality and should be paid great attention to.

[Journal Article]WU Yifang, LIU Xiaodi-Haihe Water Resources2026, No.z1

Abstract:The slope at the exit of No.1 tunnel of the main canal in Niululing Irrigation District Project in Hainan Province is characterized by steep gradient and significant differences in weathering degree of rock and soil mass,and its stability directly affects the operation safety of the tunnel and the overall benefits of the irrigation district project.To clarify the stability state of this slope and formulate a reasonable reinforcement scheme,this paper takes the typical 1-1 section at the exit of No.1 tunnel as the research object,and employs GeoStudio software to comparatively analyze the safety factors of the slope under unsupported and supported conditions.The results indicate that the safety factor of the unsupported slope under normal operating conditions is only 0.867,which does not meet the code requirements;after reinforcement with the combined support of steel pipe piles,frame beams,and anchor cables,the safety factor under normal operating conditions reaches 1.236,and that under abnormal operating conditions is 1.126,both meeting the relevant code requirements.The research findings can provide theoretical basis and technical support for the engineering design,construction,and long-term safe operation of tunnel exit slopes.

[Journal Article]HU Yue, CHEN Zifan-Haihe Water Resources2026, No.z1

Abstract:To address the incompatibility between the original characteristic water levels and the current flood control system in the Dongdian,Wen'anwa,and Jiakouwa flood storage and detention areas within the Daqing River basin,this paper re-evaluates the current terrain,hydrological boundaries,and tailrace discharge capacities.A one-and two-dimensional coupled flood routing model for the middle and lower reaches of the Daqing River system is established.Under the control condition of a 100-year return period flood,adjustments to the characteristic water levels of the Xisanwa flood storage and detention areas are investigated.The results indicate that the controlled operational water level at Diliupu of Dongdian should be adjusted from 6.44 m to 5.9 m,and the characteristic water levels in Wen'anwa and Jiakouwa should be uniformly adjusted from 5.94 m to 5.5 m.Following these adjustments,the designed detention storage capacity of the Xisanwa flood storage and detention areas is 6.26 billion m³,which still exceeds the original planned storage capacity of 6.066 billion m³ after excluding safety zones and protected areas.The adjustment of characteristic water levels ensures that the functions of the flood storage and detention areas remain unchanged and their storage capacities are not reduced.The findings of this paper have been applied in the flood control planning of the Haihe River basin.
