摘要
Effects of two important factors on earthquake response of high arch dams are considered and combined into one program.These tactors are:effects of radiation damping of the infinite canyon and local non-linearity of the contraction joint opening between the dam monoliths.For modeling of rock canyon,the discrete parameters are obtained based on a curve fitting, thus allowing the nonlinear dam system to be solved in the time domain.The earthquake uniform tree-field input at the dam-canyon interface is used.An engineering example is given to demonstrate the significant effects of the radiation damping on the structure response.
