The coupled seepage–stress action has a significant deterioration effect on the structural face of the hydraulic tunnel enclosure, which intensifies the shear rupture tendency of the deteriorated structural face of the rock mass. The plastic deformation of a typical I–II composite fissure was taken as the research object, the characteristics of the tip plastic zone of the composite fissure seepage rock were explored, and the influence law of osmotic pressure and fissure rock parameters (fissure dip angle, Poisson’s ratio, and fissure length) on the radius of the tip plastic zone was analyzed. Based on the Drucker–Prager yield criterion and the stress intensity factor of the composite fracture, the theoretical analytical formula of the fracture plastic zone radius under the action of high and low osmotic pressure was established, and the fracture rock plastic zone radius was significantly correlated with the fracture parameters. The radius of the plastic zone of fracture under low osmotic pressure evolves in a trend of decreasing–increasing–decreasing with the increase in fracture dip angle, and the peak radius of the plastic zone appears at 45°. Poisson’s ratio and fracture length have less influence on the radius of the plastic zone. The radius of the plastic zone of fracture under high osmotic pressure grows in an incremental nonlinear curve, and the peak radius of the plastic zone appears at 90°, being positively correlated with the length of fracture. This study can provide theoretical reference for the analysis of the stability of the surrounding rock in hydraulic tunnels.

The prosperous economic development and the investment and construction of several construction projects have substantially promoted the demands for talents in the engineering cost specialty. Nowadays the engineering cost specialty programs in many universities are faced with the strong applicability problem of specialized courses, and the teaching design for such specialized courses fails to meet the demands of the construction industry that enjoys high-speed development. A novel method to accurately evaluate the professional courses on the basis of the fuzzy analytic hierarchy process (FAHP) was proposed in this study. The weights of course evaluation indexes were determined by the FAHP, thus realizing the quantitative evaluation of course teaching quality. This study combined the teaching reform practice in analyzing the special characteristics of the engineering cost course. Based on the theory of outcomes-based education and multiple evaluation approaches, it established a closed-loop model for the progressive development of teaching management and expounded the evolutionary process and driving pattern of course teaching evaluation. Results demonstrate that an evaluation index system consisting of 22 evaluation indexes in 5 dimensions is suitable for the course, the teaching quality ratings can be quantified by this method, such as 81.43 points, and they can provide a certain reference for the course construction and teaching quality evaluation of this specialty. The proposed method provides a good prospect to optimize the teaching quality evaluation in the professional curriculums.
