The Longyangxia hydropower project is one of the major hydropower generation and water resources utilization systems built in Yellow River China. Continuous displacement towards the left bank at the 13" dam section has been observed and monitored. This has become a major concern to both the dam safety administration and engineers. The paper represents the results of a research effort devoted to investigate its causes.

Hydraulic and water resources engineers are concerned with the flow of water through ditches, conduits, canals, dams, and estuaries. They use their special knowledge of fluid mechanics to design dams, irrigation systems, municipal water works, and drainage and erosion control systems.
