Most of the slope failure disasters in a humid area such as that of Japan are caused by heavy rain. However, even for the case of heavy rainfall that occurs once in every 10 years, total area of slope failures seldom exceeds 10% of a watershed. From this background, we focused on the vein-like groundwater flows that increase pore-water pressure, and clarified the relationship between distributions of slope failures and groundwater veins. In this study, a 1-m-depth ground temperature survey and water-chemistry analyses at springs and boreholes were conducted in Zentoku area of Shikoku Island, southwestern Japan, to grasp the distribution of groundwater veins and their sources. Subsequently, slope-stability was analyzed to investigate the relationship between groundwater veins and slope failures at study sites. These results lead to the following conclusions: The slope failures appear to concentrate around shallow groundwater veins and groundwater veins rising from deep layers. This means that slope failures caused by these groundwater veins in addition to rainfall. Two types of groundwater originate in the deep layers: one has short storage time as indicated by the fact that dissolved substances are low; the other is stored for a lengthy period as noted by a high concentration of dissolved substances. By combining the results of stability analyses and distribution of groundwater veins, it is suggested that prediction of zones with high potential for slope failure can be more accurate. 相似文献

The liquefaction of clayey soils under cyclic loading 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
This paper seeks to investigate the liquefaction of clayey soils, a phenomenon that has been the trigger for many natural disasters in the last few decades, including landslides. Research was conducted on artificial clay-sand mixtures and natural clayey soils collected from the sliding surfaces of earthquake-induced landslides. The undrained response of normally consolidated clayey soils to cyclic loading was studied by means of a ring-shear apparatus. For the artificial clay-sand mixtures, it was found that the presence of a small amount of bentonite (≤ 7%) would cause rapid liquefaction, while a further increase in bentonite content (≥ 11%) produced the opposite effect of raising soil resistance to liquefaction by a significant degree. It was demonstrated that the bentonite-sand mixture was considerably more resistant to liquefaction than the kaolin-, and illite-mixtures, given the same clay content. The test results of plastic soils revealed the significant influence of plasticity on the liquefaction resistance of soil. The microfabric of clayey soil was investigated by means of a scanning electron microscope. The analysis showed that the liquefaction potential of soil was strongly related to certain particle arrangements. For example, soil vulnerable to liquefaction had an open microfabric in which clay aggregations generally gathered at the sand particle contact points, forming low-strength “clay bridges” that were destroyed easily during cyclic loading. On the other hand, the microfabric of soil that was resistant to liquefaction appeared to be more compact, with the clay producing a matrix that prevented sand grains from liquefying. In the case of the natural soils, the obtained results indicated that their cyclic behavior was similarly influenced by factors such as clay content, clay mineralogy and plasticity. The relation between the liquefaction potential of natural soil and its microfabric was thus also established. On the basis of the obtained results, the authors posited an explanation on the mechanism of liquefaction for clayey soil. 相似文献

Development of ICL landslide teaching tools 总被引:1,自引:1,他引:0
Capacity development is important and urgently needed for landslide disaster risk reduction. This is especially so in developing countries where mountain and urban development is accelerating most rapidly, including construction of highways and railways and residential complexes. However, effective tools to teach practical landslide risk reduction knowledge and skills are not available. Therefore, International Consortium on Landslides (ICL) has decided to compile a collection of landslide teaching tools (Sassa et al. 2013) to provide teaching materials to ICL members and other landslide teaching entities to assist in education of university students, local government officers, staff in nongovernmental organizations, and the public. The teaching toolbox contains five parts: (1) mapping and site prediction; (2) monitoring and early warning; (3) testing and numerical simulation; (4) risk management; and (5) country practices and case studies. The teaching toolbox contains three types of tools: (1) TXT tools consisting of original texts with figures; (2) PDF tools consisting of already published reference papers, manuals, guidelines, and others; and (3) PPT tools consisting of PowerPoint® files made for lectures. The initial TXT tools have been published as a full color booklet (405 pages). The PDF tools and PPT tools are contained in a CD. The basic concept and a list of contents of the ICL landslide teaching tools are introduced in this article. 相似文献

This paper describes the potential applicability of a hydrological–geotechnical modeling system using satellite-based rainfall
estimates for a shallow landslide prediction system. The physically based distributed model has been developed by integrating
a grid-based distributed kinematic wave rainfall-runoff model with an infinite slope stability approach. The model was forced
by the satellite-based near real-time half-hourly CMORPH global rainfall product prepared by NOAA-CPC. The method combines
the following two model outputs necessary for identifying where and when shallow landslides may potentially occur in the catchment:
(1) the time-invariant spatial distribution of areas susceptible to slope instability map, for which the river catchment is
divided into stability classes according to the critical relative soil saturation; this output is designed to portray the
effect of quasi-static land surface variables and soil strength properties on slope instability and (2) a produced map linked
with spatiotemporally varying hydrologic properties to provide a time-varying estimate of susceptibility to slope movement
in response to rainfall. The proposed hydrological model predicts the dynamic of soil saturation in each grid element. The
stored water in each grid element is then used for updating the relative soil saturation and analyzing the slope stability.
A grid of slope is defined to be unstable when the relative soil saturation becomes higher than the critical level and is
the basis for issuing a shallow landslide warning. The method was applied to past landslides in the upper Citarum River catchment
(2,310 km2), Indonesia; the resulting time-invariant landslide susceptibility map shows good agreement with the spatial patterns of
documented historical landslides (1985–2008). Application of the model to two recent shallow landslides shows that the model
can successfully predict the effect of rainfall movement and intensity on the spatiotemporal dynamic of hydrological variables
that trigger shallow landslides. Several hours before the landslides, the model predicted unstable conditions in some grids
over and near the grids at which the actual shallow landslides occurred. Overall, the results demonstrate the potential applicability
of the modeling system for shallow landslide disaster predictions and warnings. 相似文献

An integrated model simulating the initiation and motion of earthquake and rain induced rapid landslides and its application to the 2006 Leyte landslide 总被引:10,自引:7,他引:3

A gigantic rapid landslide claiming over 1,000 fatalities was triggered by rainfalls and a small nearby earthquake in the
Leyte Island, Philippines in 2006. The disaster presented the necessity of a new modeling technology for disaster risk preparedness
which simulates initiation and motion. This paper presents a new computer simulation integrating the initiation process triggered
by rainfalls and/or earthquakes and the development process to a rapid motion due to strength reduction and the entrainment
of deposits in the runout path. This simulation model LS-RAPID was developed from the geotechnical model for the motion of landslides (Sassa 1988) and its improved simulation model (Sassa et al. 2004b) and new knowledge obtained from a new dynamic loading ring shear apparatus (Sassa et al. 2004a). The examination of performance of each process in a simple imaginary slope addressed that the simulation model well simulated
the process of progressive failure, and development to a rapid landslide. The initiation process was compared to conventional
limit equilibrium stability analyses by changing pore pressure ratio. The simulation model started to move in a smaller pore
pressure ratio than the limit equilibrium stability analyses because of progressive failure. However, when a larger shear
deformation is set as the threshold for the start of strength reduction, the onset of landslide motion by the simulation agrees
with the cases where the factor of safety estimated by the limit equilibrium stability analyses equals to a unity. The field
investigation and the undrained dynamic loading ring shear tests on the 2006 Leyte landslide suggested that this landslide
was triggered by the combined effect of pore water pressure due to rains and a very small earthquake. The application of this
simulation model could well reproduce the initiation and the rapid long runout motion of the Leyte landslide. 相似文献

An early warning system has been developed to predict rainfall-induced shallow landslides over Java Island, Indonesia. The
prototyped early warning system integrates three major components: (1) a susceptibility mapping and hotspot identification
component based on a land surface geospatial database (topographical information, maps of soil properties, and local landslide
inventory, etc.); (2) a satellite-based precipitation monitoring system () and a precipitation forecasting model (i.e., Weather Research Forecast); and (3) a physically based, rainfall-induced landslide
prediction model SLIDE. The system utilizes the modified physical model to calculate a factor of safety that accounts for
the contribution of rainfall infiltration and partial saturation to the shear strength of the soil in topographically complex
terrains. In use, the land-surface “where” information will be integrated with the “when” rainfall triggers by the landslide
prediction model to predict potential slope failures as a function of time and location. In this system, geomorphologic data
are primarily based on 30-m Advanced Spaceborne Thermal Emission and Reflection Radiometer (ASTER) data, digital elevation
model (DEM), and 1-km soil maps. Precipitation forcing comes from both satellite-based, real-time National Aeronautics and
Space Administration (NASA) Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM), and Weather Research Forecasting (WRF) model forecasts.
The system’s prediction performance has been evaluated using a local landslide inventory, and results show that the system
successfully predicted landslides in correspondence to the time of occurrence of the real landslide events. Integration of
spatially distributed remote sensing precipitation products and in-situ datasets in this prototype system enables us to further
develop a regional, early warning tool in the future for predicting rainfall-induced landslides in Indonesia. 相似文献

“Sliding Surface Liquefaction” is a process causing strength loss and consequent rapid motion and long runout of certain landslides.
Using a new ring shear apparatus with a transparent shear-box and digital video camera system, shear-speed-controlled tests
were conducted on mixed grains (mixture of three different sizes of sand and gravel) and mixed beads to study shear behavior
and shear zone development process under the naturally drained condition in which pore pressure is allowed to dissipate through
the opened upper drainage valve during shearing. Higher excess pore water pressure and lower minimum apparent friction were
observed in the tests where grain crushing was more extensive under higher normal stress and higher shear speed. Along with
the diffusion of silty water generated by grain crushing, smaller particles were transported upward and downward from the
shear zone. Concentration of larger grains to the central and upper part of the shear zone was confirmed by means of visual
observation together with grain size analysis of sliced samples from several layers after the test. On the other hand, smaller
particles were accumulated mostly below the layer where larger grains were accumulated. The reason why larger grains were
accumulated into the shear zone may be interpreted as follows: grains under shearing are also subjected to vertical movement,
the penetration resistance of larger grains into a layer of moving particles is smaller than that into the static layer. Therefore,
larger grains tend to move into the layer of moving grains. At the same time, smaller particles can drop into the pores of
underlying larger grains downward due to gravity. 相似文献
