چکیده

Synopsis The failure of landslide dam formed by mass movements may occur by sudden sliding of the dam body. So, this study focuses on three-dimensional (3D) transient seepage and slope stability analysis of landslide dam. The 3D slope stability model coupled with transient seepage flow model is used for numerical simulations. Experiments are performed in the flume to measure movement of moisture in the dam body and to observe failure surface. The predicted moisture profile at different locations of the dam body and critical slip surface are quite close to experimental results. The simulated failure time will be prolonged and close to observed failure time if we use more rigorous method of slope stability analysis.

Characteristics and classification of landslide dams associated with the 2008 Wenchuan earthquake

Background: Strong earthquakes are among the prime triggering factors of landslides, which may block rivers, forming landslide dams. Some of these dams may pose serious threats to people and property due to upstream inundation and downstream dam-breach flooding. Evaluating the stability and potential hazard of landslide dams is significant for the mitigation measures, but remains challenging. T...

Study of Anti-Sliding Stability of a Dam Foundation Based on the Fracture Flow Method with 3D Discrete Element Code

Fractured seepage is an important factor affecting the interface stability of rock mass. It is closely related to fracture properties and hydraulic conditions. In this study, the law of seepage in a single fracture surface based on modified cubic law is described, and the three-dimensional discrete element method is used to simulate the dam foundation structure of the Capulin San Pablo (Costa R...
