Abstract
Notice of Retraction
After careful and considered review of the content of this paper by a duly constituted expert committee, this paper has been found to be in violation of IEEE´s Publication Principles.
We hereby retract the content of this paper. Reasonable effort should be made to remove all past references to this paper.
The presenting author of this paper has the option to appeal this decision by contacting TPII@ieee.org.
So far, Yele Dam is the highest rockfill dam with asphalt concrete core in the world. In order to solve problems such as local softening, softening range, expanded tendency and whether softening regions would interpenetrate, adopt hump-shaped model suitable for asphalt concrete´s strain-softening and matched iterative approach. Solve equations of equilibrium containing local softening elements using virtual-spring-initial stress iterative approach. Furthermore, identify the validity of the model and iterative approach. In the end of the paper, apply the model to Yele Dam´s safety evaluation. The result makes it clear that the internal of dam core has not appeared local softening under current loads, so the dam hasn´t become unstable.
