Description

[Technical field]

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of debris flow prevention works, and in particular to a method for calculating a rainfall threshold for a ditch valley type debris flow. [Background technology]

[0002] A ditch valley debris flow is a type of debris flow that is usually caused by slope erosion and often occurs in the watersheds of the southwest mountainous region. The rainfall threshold model based on empirical statistics is the most widely used rainfall threshold model at present, because it is easy to apply and requires few parameters. The determination of the rainfall threshold for ditch valley debris flow based on empirical statistics generally involves statistical analysis of historical rainfall events that induce ditch valley debris flows, plotting their rainfall intensity and time-dependent conditions in double logarithmic coordinates, and fitting the lower percentile horizontal lines of these data points using relevant statistical analysis software, and this power-exponential curve or linear line is the corresponding rainfall threshold. The most commonly used among them is the ID model, where I represents the average rainfall intensity and D represents the rainfall time-dependent time. The ID threshold model, which is a rainfall threshold based on empirical statistics, is easy to apply, but the triggering of debris flow is not determined only by the amount of rainfall, so the differences in topography and material source conditions all affect the prediction results of the threshold model. Rainfall thresholds based on empirical statistics do not take into account the interaction mechanisms between rock masses and the external environment, leading to many misjudgments.

[0003] For the triggering of valley-type debris flow, the super-strong hydraulic conditions in the ditch are the fundamental control factor, so currently, some studies combine the hydrological process with the rainfall threshold of valley-type debris flow, calculate the valley peak discharge under different rainfall conditions or different rainfall events in a hydrological model, and compare the calculated valley peak discharge with the critical discharge that triggers valley-type debris flow. That is, if the calculated valley peak discharge is equal to or greater than the peak discharge that triggers valley-type debris flow, it is considered that this rainfall event will trigger valley-type debris flow, and if the calculated valley peak discharge is less than the peak discharge that triggers valley-type debris flow, it is considered that this rainfall event will not trigger valley-type debris flow, and thus determine the rainfall threshold at which valley-type debris flow occurs. However, the current calculation method of valley-type debris flow rainfall threshold based on valley peak discharge can only determine whether valley-type debris flow has occurred, but cannot determine the scale of occurrence and location of valley-type debris flow, which is limited. Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0004] The objective of the present invention is to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art and provide a method for calculating the ditch valley type debris flow rainfall threshold. [Means for solving the problem]

[0005] The object of the present invention is realized by the following technical solution, which is a method for calculating a ditch-valley type debris flow rainfall threshold, comprising the following steps: S1, obtain the extreme rainfall characteristics of the ditch valley type debris flow basin, calculate the rainfall intensity of the ditch valley type debris flow in different rainfall return periods, The rainfall intensity in different rainfall return periods in steps S2 and S1 is used as input to calculate runoff hydrographs under rainfall conditions in different return periods in a groove valley type debris flow basin. S3, using the runoff hydrograph obtained in step S2 as input, calculate the hydraulic strength of different calculation units of the ditch valley type debris flow basin by calculating the hydraulic conditions of different calculation units of the ditch valley type debris flow basin; S4. Obtain basic information on the basin of a groove-valley type debris flow, and calculate the critical hydraulic power strength required to trigger a groove-valley type debris flow. S5: Compare the hydraulic strength of different calculation units of the groove valley-type debris flow basin obtained in step S3 with the critical hydraulic strength for the initiation of the groove valley-type debris flow obtained in step S4. If the calculated hydraulic strength is equal to or greater than the critical hydraulic strength, the calculation unit is an unstable unit. If the calculated hydraulic strength is less than the critical hydraulic strength, the calculation unit is a stable unit. By calculating the total area of ​​the unstable units and their proportion to the entire debris flow basin, the occurrence scale of the groove valley-type debris flow under rainfall conditions of different return periods is determined.

[0006] Specifically, the extreme rainfall characteristics in step S1 include once in 5 years, once in 10 years, once in 20 years, and once in 100 years extreme rainfall in the ditch valley type debris flow basin.

[0007] Specifically, the rainfall intensity of the different rainfall reproduction periods of the groove valley type debris flow in step S1 can be calculated by the following formula: JPEG2025009582000002.jpg6170JPEG2025009582000003.jpg5170 is the average rainfall in the ditch valley type debris flow basin, in mm.

[0008] Specifically, in step S2, the runoff hydrographs under different rainfall conditions in different return periods for the ditch valley type debris flow basin are calculated using the following formula: In the formula, Q is the surface runoff depth of the debris flow basin, mm; C is the rainfall, mm; A is the water content of the debris flow basin, mm; A max is the maximum water content in the debris-flow basin in mm, D is the overland runoff coefficient in the debris-flow basin, and B is the overland runoff threshold in the debris-flow basin.

[0009] Specifically, the hydraulic conditions of different calculation units of the ditch valley type debris flow basin in step S3 can be calculated by the following equation: In the formula, t represents time, a is a vector containing flow variables, b and c are flow vectors in the x and y directions, and E 1 and E2 are the floor slope and friction effect source term vectors, respectively, Here, a is calculated using the following formula: JPEG2025009582000006.jpg19170b is calculated using the following formula: JPEG2025009582000007.jpg24170c is calculated using the following formula: JPEG2025009582000008.jpg29170E 1 is calculated using the following formula: JPEG2025009582000009.jpg35170E 2 is calculated using the following formula: JPEG2025009582000010.jpg38170In equations (4), (5), (6), (7) and (8), h is the water depth, m; u is the outflow velocity in the x direction, m / s; v is the outflow velocity in the y direction, m / s; and ρ is the water density, kg / m 3 where g is the acceleration due to gravity, θ is the slope of the groove bed in °, and μ x is the x-component of friction stress between the water flow and the ground, Pa, and μ y is the y-component of frictional stress between the water flow and the ground, Pa.

[0010] Specifically, μ in step S3 x is calculated using the following formula: JPEG2025009582000011.jpg7170μ y is calculated using the following formula: JPEG2025009582000012.jpg7170In equations (9) and (10), δ is the roughness coefficient, which is calculated using the following equation: JPEG2025009582000013.jpg6170In the formula, η represents the Manning coefficient.

[0011] Specifically, the hydraulic strength F of different calculation units of the ditch valley type debris flow basin in step S3 * is calculated using the following formula: In the JPEG2025009582000014.jpg12170 formula, d 50represents the grain size when the cumulative content of the source soil mass of the groove valley type debris flow reaches 50%, and ρ s represents the density of the source soil, g / cm 3 It is.

[0012] Specifically, in step S4, the critical hydraulic power strength Fc required to trigger a groove-valley type debris flow is calculated using the following formula: JPEG2025009582000015.jpg5170Here, X = 0.407ln(142tanθ), and θ represents the slope of the channel bed of the debris flow basin.

[0013] Specifically, in step S5, if the proportion of the total area of ​​the unstable units is 10% or more, that is, if the rainfall event is considered to lead to the occurrence of a debris flow, and if the proportion of the total area of ​​the unstable units is less than 10%, it is considered that the rainfall event will not lead to the occurrence of a debris flow. By distinguishing between rainfall events that induce groove-valley-type debris flows and rainfall events that cannot induce debris flows, the rainfall threshold for groove-valley-type debris flows is determined.
