Hydrological response and stability of landslide with cracks under intermittent rainfall: integrating physical modeling, numerical simulation, and field investigations
Intermittent rainfall significantly impacts the landslide stability with cracks in the Three Gorges Reservoir Area (TGRA). This study integrates physical modeling, numerical simulation, and field investigations to investigate hydrological response and landslide stability with cracks under intermittent rainfall. Firstly, landslide physical test models were constructed considering crack locations and depths to investigate deformation processes and hydrological response of the landslides under intermittent rainfall. Subsequently, through the verified numerical simulation method and field investigation, the influence of different crack depths on the seepage field, displacement field and stability of Tanjiawan landslide is explored. The results show that, in contrast to the progressive shallow failure mode of the landslides without cracks, landslides with cracks exhibit failure modes of “local instability − progressive collapse-deep sliding” and “shallow toe sliding − deep progressive collapse” with the middle-rear crack and middle-front cracks respectively, due to the preferential seepage channels. As the crack depth increases, landslide deformation exhibits a trend of nonlinear accelerated growth with a distinct threshold effect. When the crack depth ratio exceeds 40%, the variation rate of displacement increases sharply, indicating an accelerated trend of landslide instability. Intermittent rainfall drives a sequential process in deep soil mass characterized by “stepwise increase in moisture content − gradual accumulation of residual pore water pressure − progressive reduction in effective stress”, leading to progressive degradation of soil strength and serving as a key factor in landslide instability. This study provides theoretical reference into the instability mechanisms of landslides with cracks and scientific support for landslide prevention and mitigation in the TGRA.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Hydrology publishes original research papers and comprehensive reviews in all the subfields of the hydrological sciences including water based management and policy issues that impact on economics and society. These comprise, but are not limited to the physical, chemical, biogeochemical, stochastic and systems aspects of surface and groundwater hydrology, hydrometeorology and hydrogeology. Relevant topics incorporating the insights and methodologies of disciplines such as climatology, water resource systems, hydraulics, agrohydrology, geomorphology, soil science, instrumentation and remote sensing, civil and environmental engineering are included. Social science perspectives on hydrological problems such as resource and ecological economics, environmental sociology, psychology and behavioural science, management and policy analysis are also invited. Multi-and interdisciplinary analyses of hydrological problems are within scope. The science published in the Journal of Hydrology is relevant to catchment scales rather than exclusively to a local scale or site.
