AI Technical Summary
Existing FDEM methods cannot effectively simulate the landslide instability mechanism of alternating soft and hard slopes under rainfall conditions, and cannot accurately predict the sliding instability disaster of alternating soft and hard slopes.
A numerical model of FDEM was constructed, boundary conditions were set and initial gravity was applied, rainfall simulation was performed, rainwater infiltration depth was calculated, and the strength deterioration of the weak layer, rock mass weight gain, pore water pressure buoyancy and slope runoff effect were simulated simultaneously to determine slope instability and failure. Gravity loading simulation was performed until failure occurred before instability occurred to determine the slope safety factor.
It enables detailed simulation of the entire process of reverse-dip slopes with alternating soft and hard layers under rainfall conditions, accurately assesses slope stability, and provides reliable technical support for slope protection design.
