Automated sliding susceptibility mapping of rock slopes
We present a suite of extensions for ARCVIEW GISTM (ESRI) that allows to map the spatial distribution of first-order mechanical slope-properties in hard rock terrain, e.g. for large slope areas like water reservoir slopes. Besides digital elevation data, this expert-system includes regional continuous grid-based data on geological structures that might act as potential sliding or cutoff planes ...
متن کاملDetermination of Sliding Path in Rock Slopes Containing Coplanar Non-Persistent Open Discontinuity
In 3-D analyses of rock slopes there’re can be numerous sliding paths a long a coplanar nonpersistent discontinuity with a known strike. This paper describes an approach for the determination of a most probable sliding path. For this particular study, several blocks of gypsum with the dimensions of 15×15×15 cm containing coplanar non-persistent open joints were fabricated. The models have vario...
متن کاملA method for automated discontinuity analysis of rock slopes with 3D laser scanning
This paper describes the interim results of a study to characterize discontinuous rock masses using 3D laser scanning data. One of the main advantages of this method is that now an unbiased, rapid and accurate discontinuity analysis can be done. With 3D laser scanning it is now also possible to measure rock faces whose access is restricted or rock slopes along highways or railway lines where wo...
متن کاملRock Slopes from Mechanics to Decision Making
Rock slope instabilities are discussed in the context of decision making for risk assessment and management. Hence, the state of the slope and possible failure mechanism need to be defined first. This is done with geometrical and mechanical models for which recent developments are presented. This leads with appropriate consideration of uncertainties to risk determination and to the description ...
متن کاملStability of rock slopes in Valles Marineris, Mars
[1] New slope measurements from the Mars Orbiter Laser Altimeter (MOLA), in conjunction with the Rock Mass Rating system (RMR), permit inversions of slope height and angle from wallrock and interior deposits within Valles Marineris troughs for strength and lithology. Wallrock (50 < RMR < 65) is stronger than interior deposits (30 < RMR < 55). These values are consistent with layered igneous roc...
