路堤边坡稳定可靠度计算中的模型不确定性分析

基于均质路堤边坡Monte Carlo法的稳定可靠度计算,分析了临界滑面搜索策略和稳定分析方法两类模型不确定性对边坡可靠度的影响特性,讨论了边坡失效概率随土工参数变异性的变化规律。研究表明,选用不同的临界滑面搜索策略所得可靠度结果差异不大,参数滑面法（overall slope）的失效概率略大于均值滑面法（global minimum）,但差别对边坡稳定性分析没有实质性影响;土性参数变异水平是影响边坡可靠度的最重要因素,边坡在相同设计参数安全系数下的可靠度指标随参数变异性增大而急剧降低;不同稳定性分析方法对应的安全系数概率密度函数曲线形态基本一致,但失效概率差异明显,因此目标可靠度指标取值应与稳定性分析方法相适应。提出的考虑土工参数变异水平的安全系数取值修正原则,对改进确定性设计的边坡稳定分析技术有积极意义。     

空间三维滑坡敏感性分区工具及其应用

对于滑坡敏感性分区目前有三种方法:定性法、统计法和基于岩土定量模型的确定性方法。定性法基于对滑坡敏感性或灾害评估的人为判断;统计法用一个来源于结合了权重因子的预测函数或指标;而确定性法,或者说是物理定量模型法以质量、能量和动量守恒定律为基础。二维确定性模型广泛用于土木工程设计,而无限边坡模型(一维)也用于滑坡灾害分区的确定性模型。文中提出了一个新的基于GIS(地理信息系统)的滑坡敏感性分区系统,这个系统可用于从复杂地形中确认可能的危险三维(3-D)滑坡体。所有与滑坡相关的空间数据(矢量或栅格数据)都被集成到这个系统中。通过把研究区域划分为边坡单元并假定初始滑动面是椭球的下半部分,并使用Monte Carlo随机搜索法,三维滑坡稳定性分析中的三维最危险滑面是三维安全系数最小的地方。使用近似方法假定有效凝聚力、有效摩擦角和三维安全系数服从正态分布,可以计算出滑坡失稳概率。3DSlopeGIS是一个计算机程序,它内嵌了GIS Developer kit(ArcObjects of ESRI)来实现GIS空间分析功能和有效的数据管理。应用此工具可以解决所有的三维边坡空间数据解问题。通过使用空间分析、数据管理和GIS的可视化功能来处理复杂的边坡数据,三维边坡稳定性问题很容易用一个友好的可视化图形界面来解决。将3DSlopeGIS系统应用到3个滑坡敏感性分区的实例中:第一个是一个城市规划项目,第二个是预测以往滑坡灾害对临近区域可能的影响,第三个则是沿着国家主干道的滑坡分区。基于足够次数的Monte Carlo模拟法,可以确认可能的最危险滑坡体。这在以往的传统边坡稳定性分析中是不可能的。     

圆弧形公路边坡稳定性分析的神经网络法

边坡的稳定性往往取决于一些难以确定的非线性因素.而人工神经网络法具有并行处理数据与信息、良好的容错特性和较强的抗噪声能力,可以通过自学功能从样本实例中获得复杂的非线性关系,能模拟人脑的某些智能行为,因而适用于解决非确定性的边坡稳定性评价问题.本文建立了边坡稳定性评价的神经网络BP模型,用收集到的边坡稳定破坏实例作为样本进行学习,对桂林-柳州一级公路中K250段公路边坡进行了稳定性评价,结果表明:神经网络法是一种有效的边坡稳定性分析方法.     

岩坡系统分析与可靠性评价

优势面分析原理是边坡工程地质问题的一种新的研究观点和模式。它认为岩坡稳定性以及破坏模式、边界条件受优势面的控制，将边坡隐定性评价问题转化为边坡优势面的寻找与优势分离体的确定。在边坡稳定性的定量评价和预测中运用了系统工程原理和可靠性分析的研究模式和方法，使确定性模型和非确定性模型达到了有机的结合，本文给出了三峡工程、马鞍山露采场等工程边坡研究成果的实例。     

边坡稳定性分析方法探讨

将边坡稳定性分析的方法分为确定性分析方法(以瑞典圆弧法、简化Bishop法等为代表的极限平衡法和以有限元法、有限差分法等为代表的数值分析方法)和非确定性方法(可靠度法、模糊综合判断法、灰色系统法、人工智能法等),详述了各分析方法的原理、优缺点以及适用性,并对其中一些方法进行了比较分析,提出了岩土边坡系统稳定性评价的发展方向。     

不同权重条件下降雨对边坡稳定性影响的二级模糊综合评判

边坡稳定性影响因素众多,其中一部分具有明显的不确定性,用经典数学理论及力学模型很难描述。采用二级模糊综合评判法,对影响边坡稳定的离散型和连续型因素采用不同方法确定隶属度,并利用二元对比分析法给出各因素权重值;同时考虑降雨对边坡稳定的重要影响,对降雨后各影响因素的权重进行修正,建立边坡稳定的二级模糊综合评判计算模型,评价降雨前后边坡稳定性的变化。研究结果表明：模型所采用的隶属函数,充分考虑了各个因素的不同特点和分布规律;考虑降雨前后权重的变化,能使评判结果更趋合理。以实际工程为例,模糊综合评判结果显示：降雨前边坡处于基本稳定状态,降雨后处于欠稳定状态,与经典极限平衡法计算结果一致。     

基于可靠性理论抗滑桩设计体系的研究

抗滑桩设计的常规方法是建立在定值基础上的,未能考虑计算参数的随机性与变异性,故在抗滑桩设计中存在局限性：一是不能给出抗滑桩设计的边坡安全度;二是设计中过分保守,造成浪费。可靠性分析法考虑了计算参数的随机性,用严格的概率来度量边坡的安全度,弥补了上述传统抗滑桩设计中存在的不足。基于可靠性分析法,以传统边坡稳定性计算公式为基础,建立了抗滑桩设计的边坡稳定性评价模型,并且运用蒙特卡罗法,采用单参数敏感性分析方法,分析抗滑桩设计各参数对边坡安全系数及可靠性指标的影响。结果表明,岩土体抗剪强度参数、岩土体重度、抗滑桩直径等因素对可靠性指标影响较明显,边坡安全系数对岩土体重度、抗滑桩有效长度、抗滑桩直径等随机变量较敏感。     

基于灰色关联分析法的边坡敏感性分析

综合考虑边坡坡高、角度、岩土体黏聚力、摩擦角和容重等因素对边坡稳定性的影响,通过有限单元应力法建立数值模型,进行应力分析,最后计算得到边坡安全系数,这一方法将数值分析和极限平衡方法有机地融合在一起,达到优势互补的效果;然后基于灰色关联分析法对有限单元应力法得到的数据建立数学模型,对各影响因素与安全系数进行关联分析,最后得到各影响因素对边坡稳定性影响的敏感性。结果表明:影响边坡稳定性的因素敏感性依次为黏聚力、容重、摩擦角、边坡角度和坡高。利用敏感性分析结果,可对边坡加固位置提出设计改进,将有限的加固措施加于敏感性较高的位置,能够更有效地提高边坡的稳定性。     

基于遗传算法和模糊神经网络的边坡稳定性评价

边坡工程是一个动态的、模糊的、开放的复杂非线性系统,传统的分析方法有时难以对复杂边坡的稳定性做出符合实际的评价。影响边坡稳定性的因素复杂且具有随机性和模糊性。由于神经网络方法不仅能考虑定量因素,而且能考虑定性因素的影响,因而神经网络方法适用于解决非确定性的边坡稳定性评价问题。综合考虑影响边坡稳定性的各方面因素,建立了基于遗传算法的模糊神经网络模型,并利用大量工程资料对网络进行训练和测试。预测结果表明,该模型的预测精度明显高于目前同类方法。     

基于有限元强度折减法的边坡动力稳定性可靠性分析

传统有限元强度折减法在边坡稳定性数值分析中取得了一定的成功,但由于未考虑岩土体材料参数的变异性等不确定性因素,尚不能直接应用于边坡稳定性特别是动力稳定性可靠性分析问题。为此提出了基于有限元强度折减法的地震边坡动力稳定性可靠性分析方法。将有限元极限分析法、动力分析法和可靠性分析法三者耦合,分析求解边坡在地震作用下的动力稳定性可靠性问题,并将这一过程在数值计算程序中得以实现。在计算分析过程中,克服了原方法需不断人工试算才能得到边坡安全系数而无法量化处理问题,并对边坡动力失效准则进行了适用于程序化的改进,使其计算过程完全实现自主运行。结合典型算例分析结果表明,该方法显著的特点是能较全面地反映岩土体的动力特性和边坡岩土体材料强度参数的变异性及相关性,所得结果相对更加合理且更符合工程实际。该方法既是对有限元强度折减法的应用范围的有益推广,也为边坡动力稳定性可靠性问题研究提供了一条新的有效途径。     

The System Analysis and Reliability Evaluation of Rock Slopes1

Abstract The principal of preferred plane analysis is a new research view and model of rock slope engineering geology. It advocates that the rock slope stability, boundary conditions and failure model are controlled by preferred planes. Therefore, the problem of slope stability evaluation can be converted into the search for preferred planes and determination of preferred separating bodies. The organic combination of the deterministic model and the indeterministic model can be realized by applying the systems engineering principle and the research model and method of reliability analysis in the quantitative evaluation and prediction of rock slope stability. Finally, the paper presents the case studies of slopes of the Yangtze Gorge Project and the Ma'anshan openpit mine.     

Development of a probabilistic approach for rock wedge failure

For rock slope engineering, uncertainty and variability are inherent in data collected on orientation and strength of discontinuities, yielding a range of results. Unfortunately, conventional deterministic analysis based on the factor of safety concept, requires a fixed representative value for each parameter without regard to the degree of uncertainty involved. Therefore, the deterministic analysis fails to properly represent uncertainty and variability, so common in engineering geology studies. To overcome this shortcoming, the probabilistic analysis method was proposed and used for more than a decade in rock slope stability analysis. However, most probabilistic analyses included a deterministic model as part of the analysis procedure causing subsequent problems, which went uncorrected. The objectives of this paper are to develop a solution for these difficulties in probabilistic analyses and to propose an appropriate simulation procedure for the probabilistic analysis of rock wedge failures. As part of the solution, probability of kinematic instability and probability of kinetic instability are evaluated separately to provide a proper, combined evaluation for failure probability. To evaluate the feasibility of this new probabilistic approach, the procedure is applied to a practical example, a major, highway rock cut in North Carolina, USA. Results of the probabilistic approach are compared to those of the deterministic analysis; findings are significantly different, indicating that the deterministic analysis does not depict rock slope variations, particularly where significant scatter in parameter data occurs.

The Dynamic Evaluation of Rock Slope Stability Considering the Effects of Microseismic Damage

A state-of-the-art microseismic monitoring system has been implemented at the left bank slope of the Jinping first stage hydropower station since June 2009. The main objectives are to ensure slope safety under continuous excavation at the left slope, and, very recently, the safety of the concrete arch dam. The safety of the excavated slope is investigated through the development of fast and accurate real-time event location techniques aimed at assessing the evolution and migration of the seismic activity, as well as through the development of prediction capabilities for rock slope instability. Myriads of seismic events at the slope have been recorded by the microseismic monitoring system. Regions of damaged rock mass have been identified and delineated on the basis of the tempo-spatial distribution analysis of microseismic activity during the periods of excavation and consolidation grouting. However, how to effectively utilize the abundant microseismic data in order to quantify the stability of the slope remains a challenge. In this paper, a rock mass damage evolutional model based on microseismic data is proposed, combined with a 3D finite element method (FEM) model for feedback analysis of the left bank slope stability. The model elements with microseismic damage are interrogated and the deteriorated mechanical parameters determined accordingly. The relationship between microseismic activities induced by rock mass damage during slope instability, strength degradation, and dynamic instability of the slope are explored, and the slope stability is quantitatively evaluated. The results indicate that a constitutive relation considering microseismic damage is concordant with the simulation results and the influence of rock mass damage can be allowed for its feedback analysis of 3D slope stability. In addition, the safety coefficient of the rock slope considering microseismic damage is reduced by a value of 0.11, in comparison to the virgin rock slope model. Our results demonstrate that microseismic activity induced by construction disturbance only slightly affects the stability of the slope. The proposed feedback analysis technique provides a novel method for dynamically assessing rock slope stability and can be used to assess the slope stability of other similar rock slopes.

岩质路堑深边坡稳定性评价的模糊概率方法

边坡工程是一个动态的、模糊的、开放的复杂系统,影响边坡稳定性的因素复杂且具有随机性和模糊性,传统的分析方法难以对复杂边坡的稳定性作出符合实际的评价。运用模糊概率的基本原理,建立了岩质路堑深边坡稳定性评价的模糊概率模型。在此模型中,综合选取了边坡岩体质量系数SRQC、边坡结构系数SSC、坡高系数SHC、坡角系数SCC、工程因素影响系数EFEC等5个评价指标因子;同时将边坡稳定性评价等级划分为很不稳定、不稳定、基本稳定、稳定以及很稳定5个等级。利用模糊概率模型对20个典型的边坡工程进行了稳定性评价分析,结果表明：该方法具有明显的合理性和可靠性,为边坡工程的预测与防治提供了新的途径。     

水力作用下岩质斜坡破坏机制和稳定性分析研究现状

基于国内外研究现状和岩质滑坡案例,总结出岩质滑坡的水力致灾机制,归纳考虑水力作用下的岩质斜坡主要失稳破坏模式,评述了岩质斜坡稳定性分析方法。岩质滑坡的水力致灾机制主要由于水对滑体产生的静水压力（岩体侧面的推力、滑面的扬压力和岩体的浮力）和动水压力（向坡外的渗透力）作用。从渗流—应力耦合的角度可较全面评价水渗流对坡体稳定性的影响。斜坡的岩体结构决定了水力作用方式和坡体的失稳破坏形式,考虑水力作用下的岩质斜坡失稳破坏形式主要有：顺层滑动、平推式滑动、楔形体滑移和危岩的崩塌。对于水力作用下岩质斜坡的稳定性分析方法主要有极限平衡法、有限元强度折减法、基于断裂力学的危岩稳定性分析法和渗流—应力耦合模型分析法,其中前两种方法应用较为广泛。     

Probabilistic analysis of rock slope stability and random properties of discontinuity parameters, Interstate Highway 40, Western North Carolina, USA

Probabilistic analysis has been used as an effective tool to evaluate uncertainty so prevalent in variables governing rock slope stability. In this study a probabilistic analysis procedure and related algorithms were developed by extending the Monte Carlo simulation. The approach was used to analyze rock slope stability for Interstate Highway 40 (I-40), North Carolina, USA. This probabilistic approach consists of two parts: analysis of available geotechnical data to obtain random properties of discontinuity parameters; and probabilistic analysis of slope stability based on parameters with random properties. Random geometric and strength parameters for discontinuities were derived from field measurements and analysis using the statistical inference method or obtained from experience and engineering judgment of parameters. Specifically, this study shows that a certain amount of experience and engineering judgment can be utilized to determine random properties of discontinuity parameters. Probabilistic stability analysis is accomplished using statistical parameters and probability density functions for each discontinuity parameter. Then, the two requisite conditions, kinematic and kinetic instability for evaluating rock slope stability, are determined and evaluated separately, and subsequently the two probabilities are combined to provide an overall stability measure. Following the probabilistic analysis to account for variation in parameters, results of the probabilistic analyses were compared to those of a deterministic analysis, illustrating deficiencies in the latter procedure. Two geometries for the cut slopes on I-40 were evaluated, the original 75° slope and the 50° slope which has developed over the past 40 years of weathering.
