Abstract :
Dam break is a serious social disaster, which causes a great deal of damage to the society and environment in downstream areas. 3D visual simulation of dam-break process at the dam breach is the significant foundation for the dam safety evaluation and insurance. Based on the agent model and its auxiliary model, realistic graph facture, the dynamic visual simulation and output after rendering, 3D visual simulation of instantaneous dam-break process at the dam breach can be proposed. A reservoir located in Shenzhen province is taken as the representative case, visualization of three calculation conditions about No.2 dam is performed, dam-break processes at the dam breach are simulated factually, which can provide the theoretical basis and technical support for the risk decision and management of dam security.
