Abstract

There are many tailings reservoirs in China, but the average safety level is low. Some small and medium-sized tailings are in great danger. Tailings reservoir is usually caused by deformation of dam body, which is a developing process from gradual change to sudden change. The physical data of disaster occurrence can be obtained by monitoring dam deformation. Effective judgment of tailings reservoir disaster risk situation, timely early warning and protection of people's lives and property safety. Based on the analysis of the function, hardware and software structure of the dam body deformation monitoring and early warning system based on wireless sensor network, the research on the deformation monitoring and early warning system of tailings dam body based on wireless sensor network is completed. The simulation experiment proves that the deformation monitoring and early warning system of the tailings reservoir based on the wireless sensor network can prevent the safety accident of the tailings pond, ensure the safety of the life and property of the staff and the production safety of the enterprises downstream of the reservoir area.
