This study deals with the manipulation of 3D digital models of rock slopes within the scope of rockfall monitoring which includes the objective of detecting and quantifying rockfall events as discrete blocks. Current change detection methods for rockfalls are based on distance computation between two rock slope models complemented successively by spatial clustering and cluster shape reconstruction routines, and include severe challenges associated with the profound interdependence of parameter tuning between the different steps. To solve these issues, we introduce a new algorithm – VoxFall – that does not rely on distance computation and its objective is to eliminate user subjectivity by launching a new tool for rockfall monitoring that would only be controlled by the quality of the input data. The method treats the two input models as a single scene and applies two steps: 1) fitting an occupancy voxel grid of a resolution defined by the registration error; 2) empty space clustering and volume computation based on voxel adjacency. Comparison with existing methods across both synthetic and real rock slope datasets demonstrates the sensitivity of the distance-based methods and the dependency on the input parameters compared to the results of our method. Application on original data predicts almost perfectly the rockfall volume (0.3 % difference) within an arrangement of recorded rockfall events. We provide evidence of current techniques requiring pre-existing knowledge of rockfall activity to tune them while VoxFall comprises a unified framework that enables direct accurate volume detection and clustering with no user intervention.

This paper presents the general apparent viscosity- and average flow coefficient-based methodology for quantifying the solid-liquid phase-change process of liquefiable soil under undrained cyclic loading. The analysis reveals that the evolution of the soil particle-fabric system is the fundamental physico-mechanical mechanism behind EPWP generation in a liquefiable soil, with the accompanying change in soil physical state serving as the intrinsic mechanism driving EPWP generation. The study further identifies the physico-mechanical foundations of EPWP generation, as well as the inherent causes and a unified quantitative characterization of the coupled influences of multiple factors on EPWP generation.

A <em>r</em><sub><em>u</em>,pm</sub> value of 0.90 can be used as a liquefaction triggering criterion for soils both in laboratory element tests and in the field. Another original finding is that the liquefaction triggering resistance curve is the threshold state curve between solid-liquid mixed phase and transiently liquid phase of a liquefiable soil and is unique for a specific initial physical state. The definitions of liquefaction triggering and corresponding liquefaction triggering resistance are clear and unambiguous and have the same physico-mechanical basis.

Various metal cations (Na<sup>+</sup>, Ca<sup>2+</sup>, and Al<sup>3+</sup>) with different concentrations were used to investigate the microstructure, bound water content, zeta potential, and yield stress of montmorillonite debris flow.

The suction caisson has been proven to be suitable to support the upper structures due to its easy installation and retrieval. However, the high strength and compactness of the siliceous sand may increase the difficulty in the suction caisson installation. Also, the soil parameters are the key factors in designing the suction caisson. Therefore, this study proposes an innovative scaled suction caisson (SSC), which features easy penetration, high bearing capacity, and elimination of grouting in the gap between the soil plug and the cap. Compared with the traditional suction caisson, a bio-inspired design concept on its outer sidewall mimics the characteristics of snake belly scales to reduce resistance during installation and to increase resistance when being subjected to uplift. Smooth penetration to the design depth is crucial under reasonable arrangement of the scales. Therefore, the arrangement of scales on the outer sidewall in the design of the SSC is examined through a series of direct shear tests. The interface shear behaviors of sand-sand and sand-scaled steel are investigated with various scale types, scale heights, scale aspect ratios, sand grain gradations, and normal stresses. Results show that the sand-sand interface exhibits strain softening. The amount of sand roundness exceeding 0.7 for sizes 0.5–1.0 mm and 1.0–2.0 mm is 67.92 % and 41.55 %, respectively. Under identical sand particle size and normal stress conditions, the interface shear stress at the sand-scaled steel increases first and then decreases with increasing scale height for similar types of scales. Under normal stresses of 200 kPa and 400 kPa, the number of sand particles in 0.5–1.0 mm increases by 7.96 % and 8.29 %, respectively, after shearing for sand size 1.0–2.0 mm with scaled steel plates. In addition, as the scale height increases during shearing, two shear zones are observed: the sand-scaled steel shear zone and the sand-sand shear zone. Meanwhile, the theoretical formulas for calculating the critical shear stress are obtained. Finally, the peak shear stress, stress ratios and sand vertical movement at the sand-scaled steel interface are analyzed, determining the optimal geometric characteristics and arrangement of scales.

However, many studies generate random geometrical distributions for fractures, leading to unrealistic subsurface models. This paper describes a new method for analyzing and modeling fracture spatial distributions based on borehole and outcrop observations. The center of gravity of the fracture is used to define the fracture position, and the non-parametric kernel density estimation is used to analyze the cluster distribution of the fractures in space. Then, the Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) is utilized to rapidly determine the fracture position. Finally, the length and occurrence of fractures are generated by the Monte Carlo method, and the discrete fracture network (DFN) is reconstructed in Matlab. This approach is applied to three field examples. Numerical simulations demonstrate that the generated fracture morphology exhibits flow behavior similar to the original fracture network. Furthermore, it is found that the fractal dimension of the fracture center point (<em>C</em>) can characterize the spatial distribution of fractures and shows a logarithmic normal relationship with fracture permeability. This modeling method accelerates the speed of complex DFN reconstruction and improves the ability to quantify the permeability of fractured rock mass.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":11567,"journal":{"name":"Engineering Geology","volume":"351 ","pages":"Article 108034"},"PeriodicalIF":6.9,"publicationDate":"2025-03-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143675561","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
