<p>Zhang Kai is currently working in the Dam Safety Management Department of Nanjing Hydraulic Research Institute, and has long been engaged in the research of reservoir dam safety evaluation, and deep-water hazard detection. As the project leader, he has completed the safety evaluation of more than 40 large and medium-sized reservoirs, and participated as a technical backbone in the emergency response of 5 reservoir dams. He has presided over the research and development of the "intelligent support cloud platform for reservoir dam safety appraisal", which has been applied in the safety appraisal of nearly 50 reservoirs and dams, and has rich experience in the diagnosis and assessment of reservoir dam safety. He has developed a complete set of technology for underwater inspection and performance evaluation of long-distance culverts, which has been successfully applied to the underwater inspection of more than ten water conservancy projects. He has published 15 papers (including 1 SCI-indexed paper) and holds 7 authorized invention patents.</p>

<p>Dr. Shen Guangze obtained his M.E. degree in water conservancy engineering from Hohai University in 2016 and subsequently obtained a joint Doctor degree from Sichuan University and the Nanjing Hydraulic Research Institute in water conservancy and hydropower engineering in 2020. He is currently a Senior Engineer at the Dam Safety Management Department of Nanjing Hydraulic Research Institute. Shen’s primary research focus on the evaluation of reservoir dam safety, risk assessment, and risk management. He has presided over the completion of more than 10 major water conservancy projects in terms of safety evaluation, risk assessment, and emergency response. He has published more than 10 papers (including 3 SCI-indexed papers), participated in the editing of 2 industry specifications, and authorized 3 international invention patents.</p>

<p>Practice has proven that conducting safety evaluations of reservoir dams has become a necessary measure to ensure the safety of water conservancy projects. This book introduces the development and achievements in the safety management of reservoir dams in China. Each chapter systematically sorts out and integrates evaluation measures related to different stages of the entire life cycle of reservoir dams, including planning, design, construction, operation and maintenance, repair and reinforcement, and decommissioning or removal, forming a complete dam safety evaluation management system.</p>

<p>This book emphasizes the importance of conducting on-site inspections for dam safety management. A differentiated safety evaluation method and disposal strategy have been proposed for different engineering scales, management levels, and risk levels, making the technical route of safety evaluation more reasonable and operable. The book is written as a reference book for professional engineers and is also suitable for post graduate courses.</p>
