A new reliability analysis approach was presented based on three-dimensional Morgenstem-Price method to investigate three-dimensional effect of landslide in stability analyses. To obtain the reliability index, Support Vector Machine (SVM) was applied to approximate the performance function. The time-consuming of this approach is only 0.028% of that using Monte-Carlo method at the same computation accuracy. Also, the influence of time effect of shearing strength parameters of slope soils on the long-term reliability of three-dimensional slopes was investigated by this new approach. It is found that the reliability index of the slope would decrease by 52.54% and the failure probability would increase from 0.000 705% to 1.966%. In the end, the impact of variation coefficients of c andfon reliability index of slopes was taken into discussion and the changing trend was observed.展开更多

The construction sequence of the pier is modeled. The pile-soil interface element is used. The influence of the combination type of piles on the deformation of bank slope and pile behaviour is analyzed. Different designs of a pile-supported pier are compared thoroughly. Calculation results show that the stresses and displacements of the pile are directly related to the distance from the bank slope and the direction of inclination. An inclined prop pile set in the rear platform would remarkably reduce the stresses of piles and the displacement of the pier.展开更多

Parts of the slope show heavy weathering and unloading. There appeared deformation and tensile crack either on the surface or on the afteredge of the slope during excavation, and under a platform (elev. 488 m), two levels of slopes collapsed on the downriver side. Based on the investigation in situ and the analysis of the geological structure, the conceptual model of deformation and failure mechanism was erected for this slope. Furthermore, the deformation characteristics were studied with FLAC^3D numerical simulation. Comprehensive analysis shows that the whole deformation of the slope is unloading rebound in certain depth scope and the whole body does not slide along any weak interlayer. In addition, two parts with prominent local deformation in the shallow layer of the slope show the models of "creep sfiding-tensile cracking" and "slidlng-tensile cracking", respectively. Based on the above analysis, the corresponding project of support and reinforcement is proposed to make the slope more stable.展开更多

The landslide area of Lishan is a case study for the research. The analysis of the risk degree for the landslide area in Lishan is based on the three-layer architecture of Fuzzy Analytic Hierarchical Process (FAHP). There are four fuzzy model structures used in monitoring devices: rainfall, groundwater level, Time Domain Reflectometry (TDR) monitored the subsurface deformation, and Global Positioning System (GPS) monitored ground displacement. These structures are relative to four membership functions that are used to classify four states, including safety, attention, warning, and danger. The risk degree of the landslide area can be obtained through the fuzzy rules by determining management criteria. Calculating the total scores of historical monitoring record of the rainfall, groundwater level, TDR, and GPS through the fuzzy theory can determine the analytical results of risk degrees in Lishan landslide area. In this whole area, management criterion is in the state of attention when the total score is larger than 72, in the state of warning when total score is larger than 95, and in the state of danger when total score is larger than 113. The system provides real-time monitoring data, and prewarning decision support in order to announce and prevent the disaster at the earliest time.展开更多
