Study on the Upstream Lockhead Foundation Treatment of the Shiplift of Three Gorges Project
三峡工程升船机上闸首基础加固处理问题研究

Based on the geological simplification of the upstream lockhead foundation of the shiplift of the Three Gorges Project and the choice of the most disadvantageous section of the structure and foundation, several different schemes with and without reinforcement are analyzed and compared by use of two-dimensional elasto-plastic FEM. Finally, the most advantageous reinforcement scheme is recommended.
