To investigate the spatiotemporal evolution characteristics of land subsidence in the eastern plain of Beijing following the SNWDP, this study employs Ascending (ASC) and Descending (DES) InSAR data combined with a Strain Model (SM) to obtain a Three-Dimensional (3-D) deformation field from 2016 to 2018. Through analysis of the 3-D deformation characteristics and spatiotemporal evolution of land subsidence in this region from 2016 to 2018, the results reveal a shift in the distribution of subsiding areas after the South-to-North Water Diversion, with a marked decrease in subsidence rates in certain areas. The maximum subsidence rate in the Beijing area has decreased to 110 mm/yr, accompanied by horizontal deformation at a rate of 12 mm/yr. Additionally, by examining the spatial relationship between major active faults and subsidence deformation in this region, the study further elucidates the influence of fault activity on the spatial distribution of subsidence deformation.展开更多

Tak- ing a fast Langrangian analysis of continua in 3 dimensions (FLAC3D) numerical modeling on com- puting the geo-deformation information caused by the mining subsidence in a coalmine for example, a new GIS-Excel modeling method is proposed to build geologic strata within the simulation range combined with the coal-seam dip angle of the underground mining working-planes. First of all, the coal-seam model of the numerical computing is built by using the geographic information system (GIS) according to the stripe-through principle and the calculating formula on the size of the model blocks in the paper defined, then the FLAC3D numerical computing model of all geologic strata with- in the simulation range is also built based on the calculating formula of thickness of each stratum and the Excel fast computing advantages. The GIS-Excel method is good at the higher modeling accuracy, seldom making mistakes and consuming less time. The reliability and validity of the method is veri- fied well by its practical applications in the coalmine area.展开更多

The model takes the confined aquifer and soft deposit of Ningbo into account. According to the pumping test data, changing regulations of groundwater level, and land subsidence during dewatering are analyzed. Comparison between the calculated value and measured value shows that the 3D model simulates the measured value fairly well. The future behavior of land subsidence during dewatering period provides the scientific basis for the construction of deep foundation.展开更多
