    Climate change has different degrees of impact on the spatial and temporal patterns of water resources and the water cycle. Taking the Upper Hanjiang river basin as an example, this paper analyzes the variation characteristics of hydrometeorological elements from 1961 to 2013 by linear regression method and Mann-Kendall nonparametric test. The Distributed Time Variant Gain Model (DTVGM) was constructed, and the applicability of this model in the basin was verified. According to the results of CMIP5 multi-mode set average, the change of precipitation, temperature and the runoff response process in 2011-2099 under RCP4.5 and RCP8.5 was analyzed. The results show that, from 1961 to 2013, the annual precipitation in the Upper Hanjiang River basin gradually decreased with time, the temperature increased significantly with time, and the annual average runoff decreased significantly with time. Under the two climatic scenarios, the precipitation in the Upper Hanjiang River basin will increase in the future compared with the baseline period, the temperature will increase significantly with time, and the runoff will decrease from the baseline period but will increase with time. The results indicate that in the future climate change, the hydrological cycle in the Upper Hanjiang River basin will be greatly affected, and there may be a certain degree of water shortage.

    In recent years, extreme rainstorms in the Yangtze River Basin have become increasingly frequent. In this paper, by using the daily precipitation data at 670 rainfall stations in the Yangtze River Basin during 1960~2017, the spatial and temporal variation characteristics of rainstorm days and intensity in the Yangtze River Basin in recent 60 years were analyzed. The results showed that the rainstorm areas in the upper Yangtze River were located in the Jiamin River basin, and the rainstorm areas in the middle and lower Yangtze River were located in the Poyang Lake system. The rainstorm days in the upper Yangtze River were obviously smaller than those in the middle and lower reaches, but their intensity was close; The rainstorm areas in the Yangtze River basin moved northwest from April to September, and its location gradually moved from the two lakes to the Jiamin River Basin. The intensity of rainstorm increased first and then decreased from April to September. The strongest rainstorm in the middle and lower Yangtze River occurred in June, while that in the Jiamin River Basin occurred in July; The rainstorm days in the middle and lower Yangtze River increased significantly, while that in the Mintuo River Basin decreased significantly. The variation trend of rainstorm intensity in each water system of the Yangtze River Basin was not obvious, but it in Yuan River - Dongting Lake - the main stream of the lower Yangtze River had a significant increase trend, and it in the Minjiang River system had a significant weakening trend. The rainstorm intensities of 100-year, 50-year and 10-year recurrence intervals were 183, 160 and 112 mm/d in the upper Yangtze River, and 200, 174, 120mm/d in the middle and lower Yangtze River.

    It is essential to quantify the parameters' sensitivity to improve the crop water productivity. Summer maize is used as the research object so as to investigate the parameters' sensitivity in different soils,meteorology and tillage measures of summer maize water productivity. The extended Fourier amplitude test is used as the analysis method. Research results show that the DNDC model can effectively simulate the soil moisture and crop growth process with 0~ 50 cm soil moisture,ETc,crop growth process and yield. Irrigation water volume, initial soil ammonium concentration,CO2 concentration,the second fertilization amount,rainfall and daily maximum temperature are factors which can limit summer maize water productivity in different hydrological years. When the hydrological age is changed from flood year to flat year and then to low flow year,the sensitivity of the irrigation water is higher than that of the fertilization amount. Therefore,the sensitivity of the limiting factor will be helpful to improve the regional agricultural water production efficiency and multi-elements,and thus enhancing the technical approach.

    Dry drainage through intense evaporation from saline wasteland is an important way to control soil salinity in arid and semi-arid irrigation areas. In order to explore the effect of saline wasteland utilization on dry drainage,this paper selects three kinds of bare saline wasteland,covered with woody and herbaceous plants in the Hetao Irrigation District of Inner Mongolia respectively,and conducts a five- month observation of soil water and salt dynamics in the irrigation season of 2018. A soil water balance is made to evaluate the evapotranspiration from the saline wastelands. The results show that halophytes can effectively reduce the evaporation from the soil surface, promote soil water consumption from deep layers through transpiration and disperse salt in soil profile. It is proved that halophytes planting in saline wastelands can increase the evaporation capacity and prolong the service life of dry drainage system. These findings serve as a theoretical basis for planning and designing dry drainage system in arid irrigation areas.

    With the aim of reducing agricultural pollution caused by plastic films,the degradation properties of degradable films and their effects on growth and water use efficiency of maize are studied with results compared with the effects of plastic film in an open - field experiment in Hexi Irrigation area. The results show that: compared with the results of open-field experiment,the coverage of degradable membranes A,B,and C can significantly increase the number of root layers,root number and root dry weight in seedling and jointing stages. The plant height,leaf area and dry matter accumulation increased significantly during different growth stages. The number of grains per ear increases by 20.25% ~ 20. 79%,the 1000 -grain weight increases by 14. 44% ~ 21. 69%,and the yield increases by 37. 88% ~ 47. 01%. Degradable film does not show significant difference with plastic film. Compared with plastic film,the economic output and the water use efficiency of dry matter increases by 3.66% and 1.68% for test film A,while those of the test films B and C decreases by only 6.50% ~ 7.08% and 6.38% ~ 7.17%. However,from grain filling stage to maturity stage,the water consumption of test films B and C increases by 7.21% and 12.86%,while the water use efficiency of dry matter decreases by 15.31% and 12.61%,which indicates that the effect of degradable film on soil moisture conservation decreases sharply in the later stage of film mulching. The results show that it is feasible to use degradable plastic film instead of plastic film in agricultural production. It is suggested that the production enterprises should prolong the stable period of test films B and C to improve the effect of moisture conservation in the later stage of maize growth.

    In order to explore the suitable lower limit of irrigation and rational irrigation times for the potato in the arid regions of Ningxia,the number of different field water holding capacity is used as the lower limit of soil moisture control to control the number of irrigation,and the different plant height,leaf area index and the different treatments are analyzed. Dry matter yield at the site,as well as WUE has impact on yield and water use efficiency. The results show that the minimum irrigation limit of 75% of the field water holding capacity of the average growth indicators are also large. For example,the lower limit of the tuber growth period is 70%. The average is 41.4 and 39.5 cm,and other treatment. There is a significant difference between the two groups ( P<0.01) ,and there is also a certain role in delaying senescence at the late growth stage. The lower limit of irrigation is 70%. The maximum yield of Tianchi is 39 894.2 kg /hm2 ,but the water use efficiency WUE is 55% in the lower limit of irrigation,the average is 13.04 kg /m3 ,and the irrigation lower limit is 75%. The WUE is the smallest,averaging only 8.84 kg /m3 . Fitting the relationship between the evapotranspiration and yield of potato. It was found that the index model had good results,and the coefficient of determination R2 reached 0.989 3. The analysis showed that when the potato ETa was greater than 440 mm,the potato yield drastically decreased,which was not conducive to water saving and the improvement of irrigation efficiency. Therefore,it is recommended that irrigation with a minimum irrigation limit of 70% of Tianchi be used as a reference for potato production in the region.

    This paper presents a stochastic model for modeling daily suspended sediment concentrations ( SSCs) ,with the use of Copula function of accounting for temporal correlation. It first normalizes the daily SSCs observations by using the normalized quantile transform method to enhance the marginal distribution selection of SSCs. Next,the bivariate Archimedean copulas are used to construct the joint distributions of adjacent daily SSCs. Finally,the developed stochastic model is applied to generate long-term daily SSCs sequences of the Pingshan station on Jinsha River. The widely used autoregressive ( AR) model results are also used as references,which shows that the proposed stochastic model can preserve the statistical characteristics of the historical daily SSCs with a high level of accuracy. The differences of statistical values between simulated and observed series are small. Above 98% of average relative errors of statistics are less than 10%,and the maximum is 4. 22%. In addition,the proposed model performed better than the AR model in preserving the skewness and lag - 1 correlation. This study suggests that the proposed Copula - based model is able to generate long - term daily SSCs data,which may have significant ramifications to water resources management

    River health assessment can judge and evaluate whether a river is in a healthy state,which not only helps river management department to determine management activities,but also provides a scientific basis for river protection and restoration. Based on the analysis of the connotation and index system of Liudong River's health in Guizhou Province,this paper constructs a river health evaluation system consisting of 5 criteria layers and 15 index sets,including river physical characteristics,hydrological and water resources characteristics, water quality status,aquatic organisms,and social service functions. The health assessment score of Liudong River was calculated by combining analytic hierarchy process and comprehensive assessment method. Our results show that the total health assessment score of Liudong River is 82.32,and the river integrity scores of the eight divided sections are ranged from 82.91 to 89.34. The whole Liudong River basin is generally in a healthy state,but some indexes of some river sections are still in an unhealthy state. Predictable measures should be taken to effectively control the occurrence or development of river ecosystem damage and significantly reduce the probability of ecosystem development towards an unrecoverable state and ecological restoration investment.

    To analyze the hydraulic characteristics of piston control valve in detail, steady-state conditions in different openings as well as transient conditions during opening and closing were investigated by numerical analysis. Curves of the flow coefficient, resistance coefficient and cavitation coefficient were obtained. Dynamic flow forces acted on the piston spool were compared while the valve opened and closed. And the flow field distribution was discussed as well. The flow characteristics of the valve is linear. The flow resistance is obviously only in small opening but it will decline rapidly with the increase of valve opening and the head loss will stay low thereafter. The minimum cavitation coefficient is 40.2 in this investigation, indicating that the allowable cavitation coefficient of piston control valve should be less than this value. As the fluid flow leads to opening tendency in this valve structure, both of the flow forces during valve opening and closing act in the open direction, and the former is less than the latter. In addition, flow field distributions of velocity, streamline, pressure and turbulent kinetic energy in different openings were studied to illustrate flow characteristics of the piston control valve.

    In order to avoid the damage caused by the water hammer, induced by pump-stop, to the long-distance water pipeline system. Hydraulic transition was necessary to analyzed to pump unit and pipeline system, so that reasonable safeguard measures was made. In this paper, method of characteristics is used to calculate the hydraulic transition process of water hammer caused by the accidental pump-stop in a water plant project. The unprotected measures, the protection measures for the valve two stage shutting off and the air valve, and one-way surge tank measures are respectively carried out for water hammer. The results show that under the unprotection measures, the accidental pump-stop will cause the liquid column separation and pump reverses. The reverse rotational speed exceeds the relevant standard. Under the unite protection measures of the slow-closing check valve and the air valve, the liquid column is mitigated, but cannot be avoided. The installation of the one-way surge tank effectively alleviates the liquid column separation phenomenon, and the water hammer pressure is within the pipeline design pressure range.

    The agglomeration method is used to simulate the single particle crushing test and the material parameters affecting the particle breakage behavior were systematically analyzed. This work aims to provide reference for the selection of material parameters used in the discrete element modeling of particle crushing. The simulation results show that the effect of bond strength on single particle crushing is most prominent, and the particle crushing strength increases linearly with the bond strength.With the increase of friction coefficient between sub-particles, the bond becomes more and more difficult under shear stress, which cause the particle crushing strength increases accordingly.The local damping coefficient can inhibit the stress wave formed by bond broken, thus changing the spatial distribution of the agglomerate’s broken bonds. Therefore, it has a significant impact on the fragment size distribution of the agglomerate.

The dam has a large section with low stress level, economic and environmental protection, high safety and strong adaptability to the foundation. At present, there are many researches on the hardfill dam on soft rock foundation, but it is rare to study on it on overburden layer. The Huishui Barrage Engineering in Guizhou Province is a hardfill dam built on overburden layer. In order to analyze the feasibility of building hardfill dam on overburden layer, taking this engineering as an example, we established two 2D finite element models of anti-seepage curtain scheme and water cut-off wall scheme to calculate and analyze the seepage field, the stress and deformation characteristics of the dam foundation and the dam body and anti-sliding stability of sliding surface. The results demonstrate that they have good anti-seepage effect and meet the requirements of seepage stability, and that their settlement and stress of dam foundation are small and uniform, meeting the bearing capacity requirements of overburden layer. The stress level of both dams is low. And the sliding surfaces meet the requirement of anti-sliding stability. Therefore, it is feasible to construct a hardfill dam on overburden layer. And considering the safety and economic factors, the anti-seepage curtain scheme is more practical.

    In order to study the hydraulic characteristics of the unilaterally divergent stilling basin, the RNG k-ε two-equation turbulence model was combined with the VOF method to calculate the water flow in the stilling basin. The calculated surface line, pressure and flow rate are compared to the model test results. The results of comparative analysis show that the numerical simulation is basically consistent with the results obtained by the model test. The in-depth analysis shows that the water flow produces a vertical axis vortex at the diverging side tail; the horizontal axis formed by the leaping roll moves upstream in the diverging side, and the water jumps to the tail. The shaft moves downstream on the diverging side; The turbulent energy may reflect the distribution of the pulsating pressure to a certain extent; the pulsating pressure on the front plate of the reverse arc segment and the stilling basin is large, and the design can strengthen the protection of these regions.

    Tensile and tensile-shear failure of rock is a common failure in engineering. Based on Hoek-Brown criterion, this paper presents a finite element method to simulate the tensile and tensile-shear failure of rock. Firstly, according to the test data of rock, Hoek-Brown criterion can well describe the mechanical properties of rock under tension and tension-shear. At the same time, brittle failure is the main feature of rock under tension and tension-shear. So, brittle-plastic constitutive model is used to simulate the deformation and failure. Then, the solution method of stress drop is deduced, which is embedded in the finite element software ABAQUS. Then, the finite element simulation of the indoor test is carried out. The simulation curve fits well with the test data, the brittle-plastic constitutive model of Hoek-Brown can correctly reflect the failure characteristics of rock such as tension, tension-shear. Finally, the model is applied to a water conveyance tunnel project to analyze the feasibility of using segment lining on characteristic section, which provides guidance for the lining design of the project.

    Flip buckets are commonly used energy dissipators in hydraulic engineering, different kinds of flip buckets play different guiding roles on flow water. Maerdang hydropower station faces difficult problems of flood discharge and energy dissipation for its high water head, huge flow velocity, centralized setting of the flood discharge structure, and it required high for scouring of the lower river bed, overall model test was made to solve the problems. In order to meet the design requirements that three holes nappe of spillway could cross-shore in the dead storage level and the downstream of river scouring should be shallower,contrast tests of oblique flip bucket, tongue-type flip bucket, straight wall slit-type flip bucket, and curved slit-type flip bucket, curved slit-type flip bucket properly were carried out, through the comparison, the curved slit-type flip bucket was satisfied the design requirements. The experimental study has some reference significance to similar projects.

    Many small and medium-sized hydropower stations built in early years of China have encountered problems such as backward technology, aging equipment and declining efficiency. This not only fails to make full use of valuable hydropower resources, but also leave many security threats. The present study on key technologies for efficiency?improvements?and?capacity?additions?focuses on the optimization of the configuration of generator sets and hydropower resources. Research on achieving fuller utilization by means of optimizing the original hydraulic structure is rarely seen. Based on the efficiency?improvements?and?capacity?additions practice of Baiyutan Hydropower Station (Hengyang), this paper theoretically analyzes the characteristics of the water head loss of the inlet trash rack, and proposes a new method to maximize the station efficiency combining the optimization of the generator set and the inlet structure. This paper also introduces the construction scheme of the inlet structure optimization which hopefully will enrich the methods of efficiency?improvements?and?capacity?additions at?existing?small and medium-sized hydropower stations, and provided reliable experience for the subsequent cases.

    The Partical two-phase flow model was used to calculate the three-phase turbulent flow of the full-flow channel in the small-flow working condition of long-segment mixed-flow turbine of the high-salt river high-head hydropower station. The calculation results show that the low pressure zone of the runner is mainly concentrated in the blade exit area. The lowest pressure occurs at the back of the long blade near the exit. The sediment volume fraction of the head and tail of the long and short blades is high. The sandstone volume fraction is the largest, which is consistent with the sediment wear in the front exit area of the actual power plant.
