Analysis methods for block toppling are most commonly undertaken in two dimensions. This paper investigates the influence
of discontinuity orientations on three-dimensional block toppling mechanisms using a three-dimensional distinct element code.
The three-dimensional models allow one to kinematically appraise if toppling conditions derived for two-dimensional geometries
can be extended into three dimensions. Two conceptual model geometries were considered in order to represent a road cut or
open-pit bench. The first geometry examined a slope with fixed vertical lateral boundaries, while the second geometry assumed
an unrestrained lateral slope as a model boundary condition. This “along-strike slope profile” of the models was found to
play an important role in the failure mechanism and displacement direction. The dip direction and dip angle of the toppling,
basal and lateral release discontinuities were varied one at the time using angular ranges of up to 30° from an assumed mutual
orthogonal relationship. This made it possible for the influence and importance of each discontinuity set to be independently
evaluated. The results are presented in a stereographic format with preliminary zones outlining discontinuity aspect combinations
that potentially result in block toppling failures. 相似文献

South Peak is a 7-Mm3 potentially unstable rock mass located adjacent to the 1903 Frank Slide on Turtle Mountain, Alberta. This paper presents
three-dimensional numerical rock slope stability models and compares them with a previous conceptual slope instability model
based on discontinuity surfaces identified using an airborne LiDAR digital elevation model (DEM). Rock mass conditions at
South Peak are described using the Geological Strength Index and point load tests, whilst the mean discontinuity set orientations
and characteristics are based on approximately 500 field measurements. A kinematic analysis was first conducted to evaluate
probable simple discontinuity-controlled failure modes. The potential for wedge failure was further assessed by considering
the orientation of wedge intersections over the airborne LiDAR DEM and through a limit equilibrium combination analysis. Block
theory was used to evaluate the finiteness and removability of blocks in the rock mass. Finally, the complex interaction between
discontinuity sets and the topography within South Peak was investigated through three-dimensional distinct element models
using the code 3DEC. The influence of individual discontinuity sets, scale effects, friction angle and the persistence along
the discontinuity surfaces on the slope stability conditions were all investigated using this code. 相似文献

Lithological information, rock mass fracture data and discontinuity shear strength obtained through field investigations have been used to conduct kinematic and block theory analyses for the rock slopes that exist in the dam site to evaluate the stability of the slopes. The analyses were performed using mean discontinuity set orientations for each rock mass region under gravitational loading to calculate the maximum safe slope angles (MSSA) for different cut slope directions. Results show that final MSSAs obtained from kinematic analysis are less than or equal to that obtained from block theory analysis. The following conclusions have been made based on the block theory analysis results, which are closer to the reality: (1) The final MSSA range between 30° and 47°, 44° and 70°, 47° and 69° for cut slope dip directions of 20–30°, 105–210°, and 270–355°, respectively; (2) For cut slope dip directions of 20–30°, 200–210° and 275–315°, wide ranges of values have been obtained for the final MSSA reflecting the influence of variability of fracture orientations on MSSA; (3) Apart from the region R-d-1 for slope dip directions in the range 20–30°, rest of the regions at the dam site seem to be stable for slope angles less than 40°. Detailed comparisons are given between the kinematic and block theory analyses covering both the theoretical concepts and application results. Also a brief comparison is included between the laboratory and in situ discontinuity shear strength results. 相似文献

Stability analysis of the 2007 Chehalis lake landslide based on long-range terrestrial photogrammetry and airborne LiDAR data 总被引：1，自引：1，他引：0

On December 4th 2007, a 3-Mm3 landslide occurred along the northwestern shore of Chehalis Lake. The initiation zone is located at the intersection of the
main valley slope and the northern sidewall of a prominent gully. The slope failure caused a displacement wave that ran up
to 38 m on the opposite shore of the lake. The landslide is temporally associated with a rain-on-snow meteorological event
which is thought to have triggered it. This paper describes the Chehalis Lake landslide and presents a comparison of discontinuity
orientation datasets obtained using three techniques: field measurements, terrestrial photogrammetric 3D models and an airborne
LiDAR digital elevation model to describe the orientation and characteristics of the five discontinuity sets present. The
discontinuity orientation data are used to perform kinematic, surface wedge limit equilibrium and three-dimensional distinct
element analyses. The kinematic and surface wedge analyses suggest that the location of the slope failure (intersection of
the valley slope and a gully wall) has facilitated the development of the unstable rock mass which initiated as a planar sliding
failure. Results from the three-dimensional distinct element analyses suggest that the presence, orientation and high persistence
of a discontinuity set dipping obliquely to the slope were critical to the development of the landslide and led to a failure
mechanism dominated by planar sliding. The three-dimensional distinct element modelling also suggests that the presence of
a steeply dipping discontinuity set striking perpendicular to the slope and associated with a fault exerted a significant
control on the volume and extent of the failed rock mass but not on the overall stability of the slope. 相似文献

目前运动单元法的研究主要集中于土质边坡,未涉及到岩质边坡稳定性分析问题;而岩体中孕育有不同特性的结构面,控制着岩质边坡的力学行为。为求解结构面控制作用下岩质边坡“结构面滑移-岩桥剪断”复合型破坏问题,研究了塑性滑移区节点在岩桥内和结构面上的运动约束条件,推导了含结构面的运动单元计算公式,提出了改进运动单元法。通过经典算例的对比分析,验证了改进运动单元法计算结果的准确性。研究结果表明:岩桥位置、结构面贯通度和结构面倾角是控制岩质边坡力学行为的3个主要影响因素。岩桥越接近坡顶,改进运动单元法所得安全系数越大,而Jennings法无法反映岩桥位置的影响效应。高贯通度的结构面导致岩质边坡发生“结构面滑移-岩桥剪断”复合型破坏模式,安全系数较小;而低贯通度的结构面导致完整岩石发生破坏,安全系数较大。水平或陡倾角结构面导致滑裂面穿切结构面,安全系数较大;而对于其它倾角情况下的结构面,岩质边坡发生“结构面滑移-岩桥剪断”复合型破坏模式,安全系数较小。实例应用结果说明该方法可以有效评价岩质边坡的稳定状态,可在类似工程中应用推广。 相似文献

The rock mass structure determines the possible unstable blocks that can induce rock fall phenomena. The stability analyses
must therefore be based on an accurate geo-structural survey. In this work, the stability conditions of several steep slopes
along a motorway in the Far East have been evaluated through key block analysis based on traditional surveys and on laser
scanner acquisitions. Discontinuity orientations and positions on the rock face are derived from the point cloud in order
to perform the reconstruction of the rock mass and to identify blocks in the slope. Results obtained from both the traditional
and the new method is in good agreement. Stability analyses have been performed for evaluating the kinematic feasibility of
different failure mechanisms. The rock block shapes and volumes are computed by performing 2D and 3D analyses whereas the
failure mechanisms are examined using the key block method. Parametrical analyses have been carried on to evaluate the influence
of slope angle variation. DEM models have also been set up. The relative hazard is determined by statistically evaluating
the kinematical feasibility of different failure mechanisms. Hazard mapping has been utilized to identify the best methodology
for risk mitigation. 相似文献

斜坡变形破坏和稳定性分析是各类工程建设中高度关注的问题.采用实例调查、理论分析、数值计算等技术方法,以雅砻江某水电工程坝址区右岸顺层岩质斜坡为例,研究总结了斜坡发育滑移-剪损变形破坏的成因机理、发育特征以及与弱面倾角和发育深度的关系.研究表明,滑移-剪损变形破坏通常发育在力学性能相对较差的薄层、互层状结构的顺层岩质斜坡或斜坡强-弱风化带内.斜坡发育滑移-剪损变形破坏与陡倾坡外弱面的倾角和发育位置密切相关.倾角在45°~65°之间或距斜坡表部水平距离小于80 m的弱面对斜坡发育滑移-剪损变形破坏的影响控制作用明显,并且弱面距斜坡表部水平距离比弱面倾角对斜坡发育滑移-剪损变形破坏的影响控制作用更强.研究成果可补充完善岩质斜坡变形破坏类型,具有重要的工程意义和实践价值. 相似文献

太原西山大佛松动岩体边坡稳定性分析 总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1
针对太原西山大佛现状,根据大佛所处的地形地貌、地质构造、气象水文条件和场地工程地质条件,分析了影响大佛边坡岩体稳定性的主要因素,提出了大佛边坡岩体可能遭受的主要工况类型。大佛边坡直立,边坡岩体为二叠系厚层砂岩,岩层近水平略向坡内倾斜。区域构造节理切割和临空卸荷使大佛岩体呈松动块状。基于强度折减法的二维有限差分稳定性分析表明,边坡边缘局部变形可能导致陡崖由反向坡变为顺向坡,从而使大佛边坡趋于滑动失稳。进一步运用拟静力法和极限平衡法分析了多种工况条件下大佛松动岩体边坡的顺层抗滑动稳定性和抗倾覆稳定性。分析表明,仅在地震力作用下大佛陡崖岩体不会发生顺层滑动破坏,但存在向外倾覆崩落的危险;在排水不畅的条件下松动岩体裂隙充水对大佛陡崖边坡的抗滑稳定性会有显著影响;在裂隙静水压力和水平地震力联合作用下,大佛陡崖将失稳破坏。 相似文献

Linear infrastructure networks like roads play a vital role in the socio-economic development of hill towns centered on tourism. Stability of the slopes along the hill roads are therefore a major concern and slope failures lead to disruption of traffic and loss of property/life or both. This study analyses the stability of cut-slopes along the Kodaikkanal – Palani hill road in the Western Ghats, India using rock mass classification systems like rock mass rating (RMR), slope mass rating (SMR) and continuous slope mass rating (CSMR). These geomechanical classifications provide a preliminary assessment of rock quality based on rock strength, discontinuity properties, hydrogeological condition of the slopes and slope stability based on the inherent rock strength parameters, discontinuity orientation and method of excavation. The results showed that both rock quality and discontinuity orientation contribute to type of failure in rock slopes with RMR > 40. SMR results are conservative while CSMR classification is matches more closely to the failures obtained from the field survey. CSMR classification represents continuous slope stability conditions and hence are more suitable for development of spatial database. Cutting of roads, thereby, steepening slopes has a definite influence on the stability of slopes. 相似文献

为研究结构面性状对锦屏大奔流料场边坡岩体性质的影响,在对该边坡砂岩进行室内三轴压缩试验的基础上,开展含4组不同结构面性状岩体的力学模拟测试,最后对该边坡岩体的开挖进行数值模拟。试验结果表明,岩样破坏过程可以分为4个典型的阶段: 弹性变形阶段,屈服阶段,残余强度阶段及塑性流动阶段。随着围压的增大,岩石破坏所需偏应力逐渐增大,且岩石逐渐表现出延性特征。结构面性状模拟结果表明,含软弱充填结构面比不含者对岩体力学性质影响(弱化)大,有倾角结构面比无倾角结构面对岩体性质影响较大,大倾角结构面总体上比小倾角的影响大,软弱充填厚度对岩体内摩擦角影响较大。实例模拟结果表明,开挖卸荷使得边坡后缘岩体产生卸荷回弹变形,产生X向拉伸位移,煌斑岩脉的存在使得塑性区域沿此软弱带发展,开挖第8步时,塑性区贯通,边坡发生失稳。研究结果对陡高边坡岩体开挖的稳定性评价具有一定指导意义。 相似文献

在岩质边坡滑动-倾倒组合破坏地质力学模型的基础上,采用改进的传递系数法,提出了岩质边坡滑动-倾倒组合破坏的解析分析方法,并对初始下滑推力及岩块底部的凝聚力进行敏感性分析。与传递系数法相似,将边坡体几何力学参数及潜在倾倒岩块编号作为变量,使得每个倾倒岩块的稳定性分析具有统一的表达式,并易于采用Microsoft excel进行程序化分析。分析结果表明：岩块底面的凝聚力对下部潜在倾倒区域的破坏模式影响较大,随着岩块底面凝聚力的增加,潜在倾倒区域发生倾倒破坏的块体呈逐渐增加的趋势,而发生滑动破坏的块体则明显较少,岩块底面倾角对坡体整体稳定性影响较大;随着岩块底面倾角的增大,整个坡体的稳定性逐渐降低。 相似文献

Slope mass rating (SMR) is a commonly used geomechanical classification for the characterization of rock slopes. SMR is computed adding to basic rock mass rating (RMR) index, calculated by characteristic values of the rock mass, several correction factors depending of the discontinuity–slope parallelism, the discontinuity dip, the relative dip between discontinuity and slope and the employed excavation method. In this work a graphical method based on the stereographic representation of the discontinuities and the slope to obtain correction parameters of the SMR (F1, F2 and F3) is presented. This method allows the SMR correction factors to be easily obtained for a simple slope or for several practical applications as linear infrastructures slopes, open pit mining or trench excavations. 相似文献

Despite the development of cities, risk assessment of rock slope stability in urban areas seems not to be growing at the same time. Mashhad is a developed city in northeast of Iran with a population of over 2.4 million. Given the closeness of the southern part of Mashhad to the Binaloud mountain ridge, the stability of the residential complexes that are being constructed in this area is a critical issue. Based on the fundamental roles of discontinuity properties and geo-mechanical parameters of rock mass, in this study we evaluated the most influential parameters of the rock slope stability and the failure probability of the slope near the Negin residential complex built on this ridge. According to the deterministic and probabilistic analyses, the north trench that was excavated for this residential complex could potentially cause plane failure. Moreover, the relationship between effective parameters on instability and their impact on safety factors were determined by sensitivity analysis. Therefore, slope dip, pore water pressure, and joint set dip were highly influential on the safety factor. There was also a nonlinear relationship between different parameters and safety in the studied area. This study presents an approach for risk assessment of rock slope stability in urban areas. 相似文献

Numerical Analysis of Block Caving-Induced Instability in Large Open Pit Slopes: A Finite Element/Discrete Element Approach 总被引：3，自引：2，他引：1
This paper addresses one of the most challenging problems in mining rock engineering—the interaction between block cave mining
and a large overlying open pit. The finite element modeling/discrete element modeling (FEM/DEM) approach was utilized in the
analysis of block caving-induced step-path failure development in a large open pit slope. The analysis indicated that there
is a threshold percentage of critical intact rock bridges along a step-path failure plane that may ensure the stability of
an open pit throughout caving operations. Transition from open pit to underground mining at Palabora mine presents an important
example of a pit wall instability triggered by caving. Using combined FEM/DEM-DFN (discrete fracture network) modeling, it
was possible to investigate the formation of a basal failure surface within an open pit slope as a direct result of cave mining.
The modeling of Palabora highlighted the importance of rock mass tensile strength and its influence on caving-induced slope
response. 相似文献

Several high-altitude slope instability phenomena, involving rock blocks of different volumes, have been observed in recent years. The increase in these phenomena could be correlated to climatic variations and to a general increase in temperature that has induced both ice melting with consequent water seepage and glacial lowering, with a consequent loss of support of the rock face. The degradation of the high-altitude thermal layer, which is known as “permafrost”, can determine the formation of highly fractured rock slopes where instabilities can concentrate. The present research has developed a methodology to improve the understanding and assessment of rock slope stability conditions in high mountain environments where access is difficult. The observed instabilities are controlled by the presence of discontinuities that can determine block detachments. Consequently, a detailed survey of the rock faces is necessary, both in terms of topography and geological structure, and in order to locate the discontinuities on the slope to obtain a better geometric reconstruction and subsequent stability analysis of the blocky rock mass. Photogrammetric surveys performed at different times allow the geostructure of the rock mass to be determined and the rock block volumes and detachment mechanisms to be estimated, in order to assess the stability conditions and potential triggering mechanisms. Photogrammetric surveys facilitate both the characterisation of the rock mass and the monitoring of slope instabilities over time. The methodology has been applied in a case study pertaining to the North Face of Aiguilles Marbrées in the Mont Blanc massif, which suffers from frequent instability phenomena. A slope failure that occurred in 2007 has been back-analysed using both the limit equilibrium method (LEM) and 3D distinct element modelling (DEM). The method has been supported and validated with traditional in situ surveys and measurements of the discontinuity orientation and other rock mass features. 相似文献

Mechanism on apparent dip sliding of oblique inclined bedding rockslide at Jiweishan, Chongqing, China 总被引：10，自引：3，他引：7
Because of the existence of a front stable rockmass barrier, the failure pattern of an oblique inclined bedding slope is conventionally
recognized as a lateral rockfall/topple, and then a transformation into a rockfall accumulation secondary landslide. However,
the Jiweishan rockslide, Wulong, Chongqing, which occurred on June 5, 2009, illustrates a new failure pattern of massive rock
slope that rockmass rapidly slides along apparent dip, and then transforms into a long runout rock avalanche (fragment flow).
This paper analyzes the mechanism of the new failure pattern which is most likely triggered by gravity, karstification, and
the processes associated with mining activities. A simulation of the failure processes is shown, using the modeling software,
FLAC3D. The results show that there are five principal conditions for an apparent dip slide associated with an oblique inclined
bedding slope are necessary: (1) a block-fracture bedding structure. The rockmass is split into obvious smaller, distinct
blocks with several groups of joints, (2) an inclined rockmass barrier. The sliding rockmass (i.e., the rockslide structure
before movement) exists along a dip angle and is barricaded by an inclined stable bedrock area, and the subsequent sliding
direction is deflected from a true dip angle to an apparent dip angle; (3) apparent dip exiting. The valley and cliff provide
a free space for the apparent dip exiting. (4) Driving block sliding, which means the block has a push type of effect on the
motion of the rockslide. The “toy bricks” rockmass is characterized by a long-term creeping that induces the shear strength
reduction from peak to residual value along the bottom soft layer, and the sliding force is therefore increased. (5) The key
block resistance and brittle failure. The pressure on the key block is increased by the driving rockmass and its strength
decreases due to karstification, rainfall, and mining. The brittle failure of the karst zone between the key block and the
lateral stable bedrock occurs instantaneously and is largely responsible for generating the catastrophic rockslide–rock avalanche.
If there was not a pre-existing key block, the failure pattern of such the inclined bedding rockmass could be piecemeal disintegration
or small-scale successive rockfall or topple. The recognition of catastrophic failure potential in such inclined bedding slopes
requires careful search for not only structures dipping in the direction of movement, but also key block toe-constrained condition. 相似文献

In this study, two types of small-scale physical modeling tests have considered the impact of the infiltration of rainfall and groundwater level in order to investigate the processes involved in rock slope deformation and failure. The study conducted the physical tests under controlled conditions of groundwater level with rock block shape for two rock slope types (cataclinal and anaclinal slopes). Observations obtained during each stage of deformation and failure were used to explain how gravity deformation varies with groundwater conditions on cataclinal and anaclinal slopes, and infer how rainfall and groundwater influence slope failure. Our results indicate that groundwater level is a crucial factor in the deformation failure of slopes. The failure mechanisms of cataclinal slopes differ considerably from those of anaclinal slopes. The infiltration of surface water and groundwater can have a significant influence on rock layer deformation and the speed of failure. Different shapes of rock block have two toppling types of rock slope, the spherical rock model relatively close to flexural toppling type and the triangular rock model relatively similar to block flexural toppling type, respectively. Details of the failure characteristics of cataclinal and anaclinal slope models are discussed in this paper. 相似文献

节理岩体是工程中最常见的一类岩体,其在地震、爆炸等动载下的力学响应及破坏过程对相关工程安全性的影响至关重要。采用基于有限元应力分析和统计损伤理论开发的动态版RFPA2D数值模拟软件,对动载下节理岩体的动态破坏过程进行了模拟,重点讨论了节理条数、节理贯通度、节理倾角及应力波峰值对岩体动态破坏过程的影响规律。计算结果表明,断续节理岩体动态破坏过程及破坏强度与节理构造形态、应力波峰值密切相关。相同动载下,随着节理条数的增加,岩体破坏程度以及应力波能量损失增强,但当节理条数数超过一定值后,岩体破坏程度及应力波能量损失逐渐趋于稳定;节理贯通度较小时,岩体破坏程度较低且破坏单元自上而下均匀分布。随着节理贯通度的增加,岩体破坏增强,且破坏主要出现于节理上部岩体;节理倾角较小时,节理上部岩体破坏严重,易形成次生贯通裂纹。随着节理倾角增加,破坏范围逐渐变大,不易形成次生贯通裂纹;倾角为45°～60°时,岩体破坏效果最佳;动载荷的峰值越大,试样的破坏越严重。当峰值达到一定值时,节理附近发育出多条裂隙并向上下方不断发展而导致岩体完全破坏。在不同节理贯通度工况下与岩石霍布金森压杆（SHPB）试验结果进行比较,结论吻合,证明该数值模拟的合可行性和结论的可靠性。 相似文献
