Description

Technical Field

[0001] Embodiments of the present invention relate to the technical field of real-time landslide monitoring and early warning, and in particular, to a method and product for identifying the starting point of accelerated deformation of a landslide for landslide monitoring and early warning. Background Art

[0002] Currently, in the face of huge landslide risks, an early warning system (EWS) that promotes the timely evacuation of high-risk populations has become an important part of landslide risk management. Although the EWS consists of various interacting components, one of its most critical tasks is to reliably predict the time of landslide instability.

[0003] Before slope instability, it often exhibits accelerated creep behavior, which is characterized by "the strain rate rapidly increases with time and ultimately leads to instability failure". This accelerated creep is a key precursor feature of impending instability, and several instability time prediction models have been proposed based on this. Related technologies have found through triaxial tests that the logarithm of the instability time is proportional to the logarithm of the strain rate. Later, this relationship was extended to the accelerated creep stage, and an empirical model (i.e., the Satio model) for predicting the instability time was proposed. It was also found in related technologies that the Satio model may not be applicable to some landslides, and it was modified (called the YAM model) to obtain a more accurate prediction. In addition, through slope model tests in related technologies, it was found that the logarithm of the deformation rate before slope instability is proportional to the logarithm of the acceleration, and then the inverse velocity (INV) model was proposed. For simplicity, a simplified inverse velocity (SINV) model with a linear trend is more widely used in practice. The slope (SLO) model was developed based on the previous basis of related research, and this model provides a safer prediction than INV. Although these models provide the ability to interpret the failure time from monitoring data, their reliable application in engineering still faces some practical challenges.

[0004] First, the effective application of the above prediction model depends on the accurate definition of the transition point from the steady state to the accelerating creep stage (i.e., the OOA point). As the starting point of the prediction, the prediction results are highly sensitive to the identification of the OOA point. However, the identification of the OOA point in prior art often relies on subjective judgment, which may lead to incorrect OOA settings and thus misleading predictions. Moreover, the lack of automation also limits the engineering application of this method. To solve this problem, several criteria for identifying the starting point of accelerating deformation (the OOA point) have been defined in related research: detecting the OOA point by analyzing short-term and long-term deformation trends; using the convergence and divergence of the displacement moving average to detect changes in the deformation trend and thus detect the OOA point. Although these methods perform well in some cases, they may also detect non-optimal OOAs or false positives, and some parameters may involve subjective values. Related research also provides a method for identifying the OOA point by assuming that the velocity follows a normal distribution. However, the actual monitoring data may not always conform to the normal distribution, which poses challenges to the application of these methods in practice. Generally speaking, the current monitoring technology is advanced, but the OOA identification method has not kept up. There is an urgent need for a simple and general procedure to automatically and real-time identify the OOA point. Summary of the Invention

Detailed implementation manners

[0020] To make the above objects, features, and advantages of the present invention more obvious and understandable, the present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific implementation manners.

[0021] An embodiment of the present invention provides a step flowchart of a method for identifying the starting point of landslide accelerated deformation for landslide monitoring and early warning, as Figure 1 shown. Specifically, the method for identifying the starting point of landslide accelerated deformation for landslide monitoring and early warning includes the following steps: S101, obtaining landslide deformation monitoring data; S102, determining the landslide deformation speed corresponding to each moment according to the landslide deformation monitoring data; S103, determining a speed confidence interval according to the landslide deformation speed corresponding to each moment, where the speed confidence interval represents the speed fluctuation range of the landslide steady-state creep stage; S104, determining the starting point of landslide accelerated deformation according to the landslide deformation speed at each moment and the speed confidence interval.

[0022] In an embodiment of the present invention, various common monitoring technologies can be used to record landslide deformation monitoring data, including tape measures, total stations, crack meters, slope synthetic aperture radar (S-SAR), and spaceborne synthetic aperture radar interferometry (InSAR). The method for identifying the starting point of landslide accelerated deformation for landslide monitoring and early warning provided by the embodiment of the present invention can be applied to the landslide deformation monitoring data set collected by common monitoring technologies.

[0023] In an embodiment of the present invention, considering that the scattering in the landslide monitoring data obscures the speed information, data filtering can reduce the influence of noise on the detection of the starting point of landslide accelerated deformation and enhance the reliability of landslide instability time prediction. Related research has evaluated the filtering performance of common filters and pointed out that the Savitzky-Golay (SG) filter has better performance. The SG filter uses a weighted average method and uses the least square equation to define the weights of polynomial fitting.

[0024] In an optional embodiment, the step S102 includes the following sub-steps: S1021, obtaining time series monitoring data according to the landslide deformation monitoring data; S1022, obtaining the landslide speed corresponding to each moment according to the time series monitoring data; S1023, performing filtering processing on the landslide speed corresponding to each moment to obtain the landslide deformation speed corresponding to each moment after filtering.

[0025] Let S i represent the landslide deformation monitoring data at time t i ( i = 1, 2, …, n ), then the time - series monitoring data can be expressed as follows. From the following formula, we can get t i the landslide speed at time v i : (1) In the embodiment of the present invention, the step S1023 includes: Filter the landslide speed at each time using the following formula to obtain the landslide deformation speed corresponding to each time: (2) where C 1j is the first row of the weight matrix C=(J T J) -1 J T , T is the transpose operator of the matrix, and J is a Vandermonde matrix with m rows and k + 1 columns (m is the length of the filtering window, and k is the order of the polynomial); is the landslide deformation speed corresponding to the i th time obtained by filtering, v j is the j th original speed within the corresponding filtering window.

[0026] For the SG filtering of non - uniformly spaced monitoring data, it can be converted to uniformly spaced data through interpolation techniques.

[0027] The polynomial degree and the filtering window length are key parameters affecting the filtering performance. Considering the computational cost and filtering performance, cubic polynomials are usually used. The selection of the filtering window length is affected by many factors. Generally, the potential window length is between 5 and 15 points, and in practical applications, it should be determined by evaluating the filtering effect of each research case. If the noise effect is significant, the window length can be increased.

[0028] Before a landslide occurs, the slope deformation usually exhibits the classic three - stage creep evolution characteristics. According to the classic interpretation, the speed in the steady - state creep stage of the landslide is constant under ideal conditions. However, due to various noise effects in the actual application scenario, the actual speed often fluctuates around this constant value. When the landslide enters the acceleration stage, the speed continuously increases and deviates from the normal fluctuation range (NFR). Therefore, the key to real - time identification of the OOA point is to determine whether the current landslide speed deviates from the NFR.

[0029] The velocity NFR of each landslide varies during the steady-state creep stage and lacks a unified definition. Based on the statistical characteristics of the filtered velocity data of a specific landslide the velocity NFR of the steady-state creep stage can be defined by the velocity confidence interval (CI). Since the landslide velocity may exhibit non-normal statistical characteristics, in the embodiments of the present invention, the generalized percentile method is used to calculate its CI.

[0030] Specifically, in an alternative embodiment, the step S103 includes: arranging the landslide deformation velocities corresponding to each moment in ascending order, and using the following formula to determine the lower limit α and the upper limit of the velocity confidence interval corresponding to the significance level : (3) (4) where Percentile(·) represents the calculation process using the percentile method, represents the time series of the landslide deformation velocity .

[0031] Although this method performs well with a large sample size ( n > 50), it may not provide a reliable estimate with a small sample size ( n ≤ 50).

[0032] In practice, small sample monitoring data is often encountered, such as deformation monitoring information from satellite-based InSAR, total station, and 3D laser scanning technology. In this case, the step S103 includes: determining the velocity confidence interval based on the landslide deformation velocities corresponding to each moment, including: Arranging the landslide deformation velocities corresponding to each moment in ascending order, and using the following formula to determine the lower limit α and the upper limit of the velocity confidence interval corresponding to the significance level : (5) (6) where N is the number of Bootstrap subsamples randomly sampled from the original sample ; represents the time series of the landslide deformation velocity ; (i = 1, 2,..., N) represents the i th Bootstrap subsample; Percentile(·) represents the calculation process using the percentile method.

[0033] Based on the accurate estimation of the velocity CI in the steady-state creep stage, by determining the current velocity v i Whether it is within the calculated CI range, the OOA point can be identified in real time. In particular, in the embodiments of the present invention, a significance level α = 0.05 is used for the CI (i.e., 95% CI) to define the NFR.

[0034] In order to improve the reliability of the technical solution proposed in the embodiments of the present invention for engineering practitioners in actual scenarios, the following five criteria are set in the embodiments of the present invention to evaluate the current deformation state of the landslide identified by OOA: Criterion 0: Current v i Within the CI range, that is, the landslide is in the steady-state creep stage; Criterion 1: Current v i First exceeds the CI, which may be a potential precursor to the acceleration stage or may also be spike noise; Criterion 2: At least two consecutive velocities v i 、 v i+1 Exceed the CI and v i < v i+1 , indicating that the landslide is very likely to enter the acceleration stage; Criterion 3: At least three consecutive velocities v i 、 v i+1 、 v i+2 Exceed the CI, and the slope of their linear fit is greater than 0, indicating that the landslide has entered the acceleration stage and is in the uniform acceleration stage; Criterion 4: At least four consecutive velocities v i 、 v i+1 、 v i+2 、 v i+3 Exceed the CI, and the quadratic coefficient of their parabolic fit is greater than 0, indicating that the landslide has entered the acceleration stage and is in the super-acceleration stage; When it is determined that the landslide is in the acceleration stage (i.e., at least reaching Criterion 3), the point where Criterion 1 is last reached is regarded as the starting point of the accelerated deformation of the landslide.

[0035] Thus, in an alternative embodiment, step S104 includes: when the landslide deformation speed at the target moment is greater than the speed confidence interval, determining the target moment as the starting point of landslide accelerated deformation.

[0036] In an alternative embodiment, step S104 includes: S1041, when the landslide deformation speed at the first moment is within the speed confidence interval, determining that the landslide is in the steady creep stage at the first moment; S1042, when the landslide deformation speed at the second moment exceeds the speed confidence interval for the first time, and the landslide deformation speed at the third moment exceeds the speed confidence interval, and the landslide deformation speed at the third moment is greater than the landslide deformation speed at the second moment, determining that the landslide enters the accelerated deformation stage, where the third moment is the next moment after the second moment.

[0037] S1043, when the landslide deformation speeds at the second moment, the third moment, and the fourth moment all exceed the speed confidence interval, and the linear fitting slope is greater than 0, determining that the landslide enters the accelerated deformation stage and is in the uniform acceleration stage; the fourth moment is the next moment after the third moment.

[0038] S1044, determining the second moment as the starting point of landslide accelerated deformation.

[0039] To verify the landslide deformation starting point recognition method proposed in the embodiments of the present invention, in the embodiments of the present invention, to illustrate the implementation and performance of the proposed method, an example of real-time recognition of OOA points using an artificial synthetic monitoring data set is given. The advantage of synthetic data is that the true values of the monitoring data can be known, so as to better verify the performance of the method. The speed monitoring data is generated using a piecewise function based on the YAM model, expressed as follows: (7) where v represents the speed data at time t , where t ∈[0, 99]. The parameters a and β of the YAM model are set to 2500 and 2 respectively. The OOA point time t OOA is defined as 75; the fault time t c is set to 100. The generated monitoring data consists of discrete points that follow the continuous mathematical equation provided by formula (7) and are spaced one unit of time apart. In addition, random values following the standard normal distribution (i.e., mean of 0 and standard deviation of 1) are added to simulate the noise in the monitoring data.

[0040] The proposed OOA point recognition method was executed on a workstation (Intel® Core™ i5-14600KF CPU @ 3.5 GHz, 32 GB RAM). Whenever new monitoring data is obtained, the method takes less than 0.2 seconds to evaluate the landslide deformation stage each time, almost completing in real time. Figure 2 It shows the synthetic data and the filtered synthetic data in the embodiments of the present invention, as well as the OOA points determined using the method proposed in the embodiments of the present invention. Among them, part (a) is the synthetic data, (b) is the OOA point recognition result based on the synthetic data, and part (c) is the OOA point recognition result based on the filtered data. Among them, in part (a), the orange points represent the original velocity data, the green points represent the filtered velocity data, the blue line represents the ideal velocity curve, the red dashed line corresponds to the landslide instability time, and the purple dashed line corresponds to the true OOA point. In part (b), the green points correspond to criterion 0, the yellowish-green points correspond to criterion 1, the yellow points correspond to criterion 2, the orange points correspond to criterion 3, the red points correspond to criterion 4, the blue dashed line corresponds to the ideal velocity curve, the red dashed line corresponds to the instability time, and the orange dashed line corresponds to the OOA point determined using the method proposed in the embodiments of the present invention. In part (c), the green points correspond to criterion 0, the yellowish-green points correspond to criterion 1, the yellow points correspond to criterion 2, the orange points correspond to criterion 3, the red points correspond to criterion 4, the blue dashed line corresponds to the ideal velocity curve, the red dashed line corresponds to the instability time, and the orange dashed line corresponds to the OOA point determined using the method proposed in the embodiments of the present invention.

[0041] by Figure 2 It can be clearly seen that the original data with noise obscures the velocity trend and may interfere with the judgment of professionals. According to the original monitoring data, the identified OOA point is 87, which is 12 unit times later than the true OOA point (75) due to the influence of noise (as shown in part b of Figure 2 ). In contrast, data filtering significantly reduces the noise and clarifies the deformation trend. The OOA point identified using the filtered data is 78, which only differs from the true value (75) by 3 unit times (as shown in part c of Figure 2 ). This small error is acceptable because during the transition stage between the steady state and the accelerating state, the increment of velocity is small, resulting in the confusion of the obvious boundary between these two stages. In this case, it is challenging to accurately determine the OOA by any method (including the method based on expert experience). In summary, the tests based on the synthetic monitoring data examples show that data filtering can significantly improve the data quality, and the OOA point recognition method proposed in the embodiments of the present invention has good performance.

[0042] In the embodiments of the present invention, a historical landslide dataset is established, which includes 15 historical landslide cases with complete monitoring data reported in the literature. The cases in the dataset use a variety of different monitoring methods (total station, spaceborne InSAR, crack meter, etc.), cover a variety of slope types (natural, artificial fill, and mining slopes), and vary in volume, material, failure mechanism, and triggering factors. The monitoring data of most cases is obtained by digitizing scientific literature using WebPlotDigitizer software. The monitoring period of each case is long enough to include the transition between the stable creep stage and the accelerating creep stage. Table 1 summarizes the detailed information of the landslide cases.

[0043] Table 1. Information on the Landslide Case Dataset

[0044] Before determining the OOA point, the landslide velocity monitoring data needs to be preprocessed using the SG filtering method of formula (2). It can be seen from the results that the SG filter effectively reduces the noise in the monitoring data and clearly reveals the deformation trend of the landslide. This provides a good data basis for subsequent determination of the OOA point.

[0045] Based on the filtered velocity data, the OOA point identification method proposed in the embodiments of the present invention determines the landslide deformation stage in real time. Since landslide monitoring is a dynamically updated process, the technical solution provided in the embodiments of the present invention can automatically identify the OOA point in real time to ensure timely warning.

[0046] In the embodiments of the present invention, when evaluating the landslide deformation state, only the monitoring data available before the current moment is used to simulate the actual application scenario. The OOA identification results of the 15 landslide cases considered in the embodiments of the present invention are as Figure 3 and Figure 4 shown, Figure 3 showing the deformation monitoring data and OOA point identification results of Cases 1 to 8, Figure 4 showing the deformation monitoring data and OOA point identification results of Cases 9 to 15. It can be seen that in the 15 cases, the OOA points related to the final landslide instability are found early enough (an average of 36.20 days) to enable timely prediction of the instability time. Among them, the OOA point of the Cadia tailings dam landslide monitored by satellite InSAR was determined 95.78 days before the instability, and the latest accelerating trend leading to the collapse of the No. 1 open-pit mine landslide monitored by GB-SAR was found 0.92 days before the instability. The results show that for the 15 landslide cases with different monitoring instruments and monitoring frequencies, the proposed method can successfully identify the OOA point in a real-time scenario.

[0047] In addition, it is also necessary to timely identify the latest landslide deformation trend. The method proposed in the embodiments of the present invention detected repeated acceleration stages in multiple landslide cases, such as the Iron Mine landslide, the Letlhakane landslide, the 1# open-pit mine landslide, and the Preonoz landslide. These findings are consistent with the actual deformation trend, verifying the excellent performance of the proposed method. Landslides are affected by rainfall, human activities, and stability degradation, resulting in accelerated deformation. However, when the influence of external factors is mitigated or weakened by the self-organization effect, it may cause the landslide to reach a new steady state. The method proposed in the embodiments of the present invention can use the latest deformation monitoring data to update the current deformation state in real time. When the landslide deformation continues to accelerate under the positive feedback mechanism and leads to instability, the method can also successfully identify the final OOA point.

[0048] Finally, under the condition of the same workstation (Intel® Core™ i5-14600KF CPU @ 3.5 GHz, 32 GB RAM), the computational efficiency of the proposed method was evaluated by simulating a real landslide monitoring scenario (i.e., dynamically and real-time identifying the OOA point as new monitoring data is obtained). In the scenario of small-sample monitoring data, each OOA point detection can be completed within 0.2 seconds; in the case of large-sample monitoring data, each OOA point detection can be completed within 0.1 seconds, and this process can be considered to be completed in real time. Taking the Vajont landslide (small-sample monitoring data set, 21 data points) and the Preonoz landslide (large-sample monitoring data set, 649 data points) as examples, the total time for OOA point identification is 3.50 seconds and 9.44 seconds respectively. The method has a low computational cost and excellent performance, and can provide strong support for the real-time interpretation of landslide monitoring data in practical applications.

[0049] In summary, the OOA point identification method proposed in the embodiments of the present invention is general and can achieve real-time automatic identification, and performs well among different monitoring methods for the 15 landslide cases considered. This provides the key and necessary conditions for the successful implementation of landslide warning.

[0050] The real-time OOA point identification program proposed in the embodiments of the present invention can accurately identify the OOA points consistent with the actual acceleration trend in both synthetic data sets and multiple historical landslide cases, demonstrating its robustness and applicability in different scenarios. In addition, for landslides with multiple acceleration stages, the latest OOA points can be evaluated based on real-time monitoring data, which is crucial in actual warning scenarios.

[0051] In the embodiments of the present invention, 3 representative landslide cases were selected, and different monitoring methods with different frequencies were used to elaborate in detail the performance of the method proposed in the embodiments of the present invention.

[0052] 1. Preonoz Landslide In the embodiment of the present invention, the Preonoz landslide is mainly composed of amphibolite and gneiss, and it has experienced several large-scale catastrophic damages in history. According to the landslide deformation data monitored by crack gauges starting from May 1, 2012, the landslide event was reviewed again using the proposed method. Let t = 0 represent the first measurement date, then the landslide instability failure time is 14.06 d. First, the original velocity data was preprocessed using the SG filter (as shown in part (a) of Figure 5 ). Then, the velocity NFR (i.e., 95% CI) at each monitoring moment was evaluated in real time in the embodiment of the present invention (as shown in part (a) of Figure 5 ). Combining the OOA point real-time identification criterion proposed by the present invention, we determined two key OOA points (as shown in part (b) of Figure 5 ). The first landslide acceleration event finally converged to a new steady state, while the second landslide acceleration event finally led to the landslide instability. These results are consistent with the actual decision described in this case, and the method proposed in the embodiment of the present invention detected the OOA points earlier, providing more safety margins.

[0053] Among them, Figure 5 shows the results of the Preonoz landslide case analysis. Part (a) represents the filtered velocity and its NFR (95%CI) results; part (b) represents the displacement monitoring data and the OOA point identification results.

[0054] 2. Iron Mine Landslide In this case, the deformation of the Iron Mine landslide was monitored using prism station measurements. The overall angle of this slope is about 75°, and the height is 80m. Finally, wedge-shaped sliding instability occurred due to being surrounded by structural planes cut on both sides. Figure 6 Part (a) of Figure 6 shows the Iron Mine landslide deformation data recorded by station No. 65 with a monitoring frequency of 1 d. The original data was processed using the SG filtering method, and the further OOA identification results are as shown in part (b) of t . During the entire deformation stage, a total of three landslide acceleration events were detected. The first acceleration event was characterized by a brief and slight increase in velocity, followed by stability, while the second was a brief increase and then decreased to the normal fluctuation range. The final acceleration event was detected at t = 53 d, and the velocity continued to increase until the landslide occurred at

[0055] = 70 d. The method successfully identified multiple landslide acceleration events and updated the OOA point identification results in real time according to the latest monitoring data, demonstrating the good performance of the method. Figure 6Shows the results of the Iron Mine landslide: Part (a) represents the filtered velocity and its NFR (95% CI); Part (b) represents the displacement monitoring data and the OOA point identification results.

[0056] 3. Cadia Tailings Dam Landslide In this case, the historical deformation of the Cadia Tailings Dam landslide since 2017 was analyzed using the satellite InSAR method and Sentinel-1 data (revisit time of 12 d), and its velocity record is shown in Figure 7 part (a) below. For simplicity, November 16, 2016 was set as t t = 0 d, and the failure time was 431.78 d. According to the established procedure, the original velocity data was filtered, and the OOA points were determined using the proposed method. Figure 7 Part (b) below shows the OOA point identification results. The first OOA point appeared at t t = 12 d, and then the landslide velocity dropped to the normal fluctuation range, indicating that the landslide entered the steady-state creep stage. Subsequently, at t t = 336 d, the last OOA point was detected, and the velocity continued to increase until the final failure. This finding is consistent with the object-oriented analysis results in the related technology, demonstrating the effectiveness of the proposed method.

[0057] The embodiments of the present invention relate to the technical field of landslide monitoring data processing and early warning forecasting. In the embodiments of the present invention, by analyzing the statistical characteristics of landslide velocity data in real time, the starting point of the accelerated deformation of the landslide is dynamically identified according to the set discrimination criteria. Specifically, the present invention accurately estimates the confidence interval to characterize the normal fluctuation range of the velocity in the steady-state creep stage of the landslide, and evaluates the mutual relationship between the current velocity and the calculated velocity confidence interval in real time according to the discrimination criteria. When the current velocity exceeds the confidence interval, it is determined as a potential precursor of the acceleration stage, and the corresponding point is used as the starting point of the accelerated deformation of the landslide. The OOA point identification method proposed by the present invention is universal and performs well in 15 landslide cases using different monitoring methods considered in the present invention. This method provides key and necessary technical support for the landslide early warning system and has important practical application value.
