The role of deformation monitoring

The primary purpose of deformation monitoring is to master the actual characteristics of hydraulic structures, scientifically, accurately and timely analyze and predict the deformation of hydraulic structures, which is extremely important for the construction and operation management of hydraulic structures. Deformation monitoring involves engineering survey, engineering geology, hydrology, structural mechanics, geophysics, computer science and other disciplines. It is an interdisciplinary research and is developing in the direction of marginal disciplines.
