Abstract:High concrete rockfill dam settlement during the constructing and initial operating period is a complex nonlinear systematic process, especially for those in karst areas which have much more unfavorable factors. By extracting potential inevitability from the finite and discrete settlement data, grey system theory can establish model to seek settlement law of the high concrete face rockfill dam in karst areas. According to the single point model named GM(1,1) can’t consider the correlation of settlement between the discrete monitoring points, so that it can’t respect the integrated deformation regularity of the high concrete rockfill dam settlement, A multivariable grey model named MGM(1,n) is introduced to solve the problem in this paper. Based on grey correlation analysis, the MGM(1,3) model is established in this paper using the settlement data of the maximum and its relating monitoring points of the Qianzhong Hydraulic Project Dam during the constructing period. A case study shows the MGM(1,3) model can respect the integrated deformation regularity of the high concrete rockfill dam settlement and has a higher precision in simulating and forecasting than GM(1,1) model.
