对岩溶发育特征与涌突水的关系作了深入介绍并给出了判断标准，提出岩溶涌水与气温、降雨量和降雨强度、施工引起的应力分布等因素有关，通过数值模拟和理论分析阐述了岩溶突水的止水岩柱受拉破坏、裂隙剪切破坏、裂隙水力扩张、块体失稳破坏等突水机理，并对突水压力和突水量的估算和岩溶治理技术做了介绍。

The relationship between the karst development features and the water gushes are presented in detail and assessment criteria is proposed; it is proposed that the karst water gushes are related to the atmospheric temperature, rainfall and rainfall intensity and the stress distribution caused by the construction; the water gushing mechanisms, such as the tensioning failure of the watersealing rock columns, the shearing failure of the fissures, the hydrodynamic expansion of the fissures and the stabilitylosing failure of the ground, are expounded by means of numerical analysis and theoretical analysis; the estimation of the water gushing quantity and the water gushing pressure, as well as the karst treatment technology, are presented.
