Large amount of water is diverted annually for irrigation along the Yellow River. Owing to the tremendous sediment carried by the river , sediment deposits is an important problem in irrigation and drainage system. The sediment has to be taken out by machines from the irrigation system, otherwise water can not be available in the right place at the right time. In order to improve the sediment desilting efficiency, the sediments that settle in certain sites of a irrigation system must be removed by different desilting machines with special performance and working conditions. Those certain sites include : the diversion canal in the flood plain , the mouth of inlet, settling basin , irrigation and drainage system. In view of removal sediment above, the paper presents the ideas of type selection of desilting machines applied to certain sites. Proposals of making further improvement on performance for some desilting machines are also put forward.

To investigate the mechanical behavior of the post-tensioned prestressed concrete lining (PPCL), the desilting tunnel of the Xiaolangdi Hydro Project in China is adopted as a case, and a detailed three-dimensional continuum model verified by the observation results is established for the PPCL. The radial stresses, longitudinal stresses, axial forces and bending moments of the PPCL under the completed cable tension condition (CCTC) and design water pressure condition (DWPC) are analyzed, respectively. The numerical results reveal that the PPCL concrete is significantly compressed in the circumferential direction by the prestress, while the prestress has a negligible influence on the radial stresses of the PPCL concrete. It should be noted that the concrete near the anchor slots has a complex and adverse stress state with stress concentration, longitudinal tensioning and large bending moment. In addition, a simplified shell model and a further simplified beam model which can take the influences of the prestress loss and the anchor slot into consideration are proposed for the PPCL. The results of the simplified models are in a good agreement with these of the three-dimensional continuum model, and they can be used as efficient approaches for the structural design and analysis of the PPCL.
