Title: Deformation and Stress Analysis for Maotan Masonry Arch Dam
Abstract: According to the actual engineering condition of Maotan Hydropower station in Huangshang city,the 3-D FEM model of Maotan arch dam is built by ANSYS.The simulation technique of temperature variation load is studied for the masonry arch dam,and in the light of the design code,the stress and deformation of dam body under some load conditions are calculated and analyzed.It is shown that the stress and deformation of the masonry arch dam is accord with the general laws by FEM and the strength of the dam can satisfy the design code.
