Abstract

The diversity of topographic and geological conditions significantly affects the kinematics and failure mechanisms of reservoir-induced landslides, especially those with rear reservoirs, which remain understudied. Taking the Shuiyunshan slow-moving landslide as a case study, this study investigates its failure mechanisms through a combination of field investigations, InSAR monitoring, and numerical simulations. The results reveal that the landslide is primarily driven by effective rainfall accumulation in a rear concave catchment area and sustained infiltration and erosion from rear reservoirs. The rear concave catchment area, which is 1.04 times the volume of the landslide body, alters the infiltration process of atmospheric rainfall. Approximately 61.9% of the rainfall generates surface runoff that accumulates in the rear reservoirs rather than discharging during rainstorms (100 mm/d). Furthermore, the distinctive geological structure featuring limestone interfacing with shale prolongs the infiltration process, while the rear reservoirs intensify groundwater recharge and weaken shale through prolonged immersion. The hydrostatic pressure and substantial hydraulic gradient exerted by the rear reservoirs significantly increase groundwater recharge within the landslide. Numerical simulations indicate that increasing the reservoir water level from 0 m to 3 m results in a decrease of approximately 16.3% in the safety factor of the most dangerous sliding surface of the landslide, highlighting the adverse impact of rear reservoirs on landslide stability. This study enhances the understanding of rear reservoir-induced landslides in mountainous regions, with implications for rural hydraulic infrastructure.

库后诱发滑坡特征及破坏机制——以新邵水云山滑坡为例
地形和地质条件的多样性显著影响着水库诱发滑坡的运动学和破坏机制,特别是水库后诱发滑坡,这方面的研究尚不充分。以水云山慢动滑坡为例,采用现场调查、InSAR监测和数值模拟相结合的方法,探讨其破坏机制。结果表明,滑坡主要是由后部凹形集水区的有效降雨积累和后部水库的持续入渗侵蚀驱动的。后凹集水区面积为滑坡体体积的1.04倍,改变了大气降水的入渗过程。大约61.9%的降雨产生地表径流,这些径流在暴雨期间(100毫米/天)积聚在后面的水库中,而不是排出。此外,石灰岩与页岩界面的独特地质构造延长了入渗过程,而后储层则通过长时间浸没强化地下水补给,弱化页岩。后水库施加的静水压力和巨大的水力梯度显著增加了滑坡内地下水的补给。数值模拟结果表明,将水库水位从0 m提高到3 m,导致滑坡最危险滑面安全系数下降约16.3%,凸显了后水库对滑坡稳定性的不利影响。本研究提高了对山区水库后诱发滑坡的认识,对农村水利基础设施具有指导意义。

期刊介绍: Engineering geology is defined in the statutes of the IAEG as the science devoted to the investigation, study and solution of engineering and environmental problems which may arise as the result of the interaction between geology and the works or activities of man, as well as of the prediction of and development of measures for the prevention or remediation of geological hazards. Engineering geology embraces: • the applications/implications of the geomorphology, structural geology, and hydrogeological conditions of geological formations; • the characterisation of the mineralogical, physico-geomechanical, chemical and hydraulic properties of all earth materials involved in construction, resource recovery and environmental change; • the assessment of the mechanical and hydrological behaviour of soil and rock masses; • the prediction of changes to the above properties with time; • the determination of the parameters to be considered in the stability analysis of engineering works and earth masses.
