中国是世界拱坝大国也是世界拱坝强国——在《特高拱坝建设总结及安全运行管理研究》会议上的发言

China is the largest and strongest country of concrete arch dams in the world

中国拱坝数量占全世界的40%,数量最多;世界最高的三座拱坝都在中国,因此中国是世界拱坝大国。中国解决了岩溶地区拱坝防渗、狭窄河谷拱坝大流量泄洪等技术难题,发展了碾压混凝土拱坝筑坝技术。中国学者首创大坝混凝土标号分区技术,首创混凝土坝温度应力理论体系,解决了大坝裂缝这一世界性难题;建立了拱坝优化理论、混凝土坝仿真分析方法、混凝土坝有限元等效应力方法、混凝土坝数值监控方法等,在拱坝设计和科研上取得了全世界最多的重要成果,因此中国既是世界拱坝大国,又是世界拱坝强国。

The bigest amount of arch dams and the three highest arch dams are built in China.A series of technical innovations of concrete arch dams are developed in China; one dam with different kinds of concrete,thermal stresses and crack prevention of concrete dam,shape optimization、simulating stress analysis、equivalent stress of finite element method、numerical monitoring of concrete dam,etc.The most amount of important technical innovations of concrete arch dams are developed in China.Thus,China is the strongest as well as the largest country of arch dams in the world.
