Application of Flow Velocity and Direction Measurement System in Slope Stability Analysis

Hydrodynamic pressure is often a crucial factor in the evaluation of slope stability analysis, especially for many rainfall-triggered landslides. Nevertheless, hydrodynamic rarely considered traditional limit equilibrium slice method analysis since effective and reliable data are lacking practice. Moreover, efficient methods to involve these an urgent need. To overcome concerns, flow velocity direction system (FVDS) employed measure groundwater velocity, which can be used generate samples at different monitoring points. Based on samples, each soil strip estimated using artificial neural networks (ANNs). Afterward, improved Bishop that considers proposed. The effectiveness significance proposed illustrated with case study, Fanshantou landslide Zhejiang Province, China. safety before after taking drainage countermeasures also calculated compared. results indicate plays important role landslide. Compared classical method, shown agree better actual deformation characteristics
