Abstract: Water conservancy projects in the western region of China are mostly built near complex earthquake fault zones, and the pulse-like effect of near-field ground motions on hydraulic structures cannot be ignored. The near-fault ground motion is often composed of P-waves and SV-waves. When the seismic waves reach the surface, they often hit the ground at a certain angle, and the assumption of vertical incidence is no longer applicable. Therefore, it is necessary to clarify the impact of combined oblique incidence of near-fault pulse-like ground motions on the seismic response of asphalt concrete face rockfill dams. Based on the surface two-dimensional seismic motion inversion, the oblique incidence time history of P-waves and SV-waves were obtained, and a combined oblique incidence model of near-fault ground motions was constructed. Five pulse-like and non-pulse-like ground motions were selected to study the influence of the combined oblique incidence of near-fault ground motions on the acceleration, stress, and permanent deformation of asphalt concrete panels. The results show that compared to the vertical incidence of ground motions, the horizontal acceleration of the panel increases with the increase of P-wave angle and decreases with the increase of SV-wave angle, while the vertical acceleration of the panel and permanent deformation of the dam body are on the opposite; the tensile stress of the panel increases with the increase of P-wave and SV-wave angles; the pulse-like characteristics of near-fault ground motions have a significant amplification effect on the seismic response of the dam, with a maximum increase of 116% in panel tensile stress.
