AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Existing technologies fail to effectively couple porosity with shear strength parameters and inherent permeability coefficients, leading to inaccurate stability analysis of loess slopes, especially under hydraulic coupling conditions. Furthermore, the safety factor determination criteria of the strength reduction method are not reliable enough.

Method used

Finite element software was used for geometric modeling to establish a constitutive model that considers the influence of porosity. A porosity random field was introduced to characterize the heterogeneity, and the safety factor was calculated by an improved strength reduction method. The slope stability under hydraulic coupling conditions was simulated in combination with atmospheric boundary conditions.

Benefits of technology

It effectively simulates the influence of heterogeneous porosity on loess slopes, improves the accuracy of slope stability analysis and the reliability of safety factor calculation, and can better predict landslide risks.
