The change of reservoir water level fluctuation has an important influence on the landslide deformation. In this paper, taking Zigui County of the Three Gorges Reservoir Shuping landslide as an example, based on the deformation and water level of reservoir deformation related analysis of landslide, summarizes the general rule by reservoir water level variation effect on deformation of landslide, which can provide some reference for the monitoring and analysis of landslide similar.

The reservoir water level fluctuation is an important factor inducing the reaction of pore-water pressure, seepage and at last resulting in instability and failure of the slope. A typical homogeneous slope is conducted as an example in this paper, the seepage and stress coupling effect is considered, and the slope stability calculation and analysis are carried out by using the finite element stress method. The results demonstrate that the factor of safety increases with the reservoir water level rises, and then gradually changes from decrease to stabilization. It should be noted that the factor of safety decreases slightly during the initial stage of water level rising at the speed of 0.2 m/d, which the slope will probably lose its stability. On the other, the factor of safety changes from decrease to increase along with the reservoir water level drawdown, and then gradually tends to stabilization. There is a minimum factor of safety when the water level is at about 1/4 of the slope height, and the minimum factor of safety decreases with increasing drawdown speed, just as the factor of safety decreases from 0.83 to 0.73 when the drawdown speed is increased from 0.20 m/d to 5.0 m/d.

It has been accepted that the rainfall and the reservoir water level fluctuation plays an important role in the stability of the reservoir bankside. However, at present, there has not been suitable simplification method for the project application to calculate and appraise. Therefore, based on the Boussinesq’s differential equation of unsteady-seepage and boundary condition, and Laplace’s transform, the curvilinear equation of phreatic line in landslide mass is deduced under the rainfall and the reservoir water level fluctuation conditions, and a simplified formula which can be used in the project is gained by the polynomial fitting. Meanwhile, it holds together the transmission coefficient method to write programs about the bankside stability analysis in the paper. With the Er-Liban landslide of the three Gorges Reservoir area for the computation model, this paper use the program to analyze the change rule and stability of the phreatic line under the reservoir water level fluctuation and rainfall condition.

Reservoir water level is one important factor influencing the stability of landslides. The dynamic response of landslide stability under reservoir water level function and its features are analyzed using theoretical and numerical methods. The results show that, in terms of reservoir water level fluctuation and landslide permeability, the seepage filed of landslide can be divided into four types: lag behind impoundment(X-Ⅰ), lag behind drawdown(T-Ⅰ), synchronization with impoundment(X-Ⅱ) and synchronization with drawdown (T-Ⅱ). Under lag behind drawdown, at a certain rate of reservoir drawdown, the stability drops with the permeability of landslide. Under lag behind impoundment, with the rise of water level, the lower the permeability of landslide is, the more stable the landslide is. Under synchronization with impoundment or drawdown, the stability of landslide drops with reservoir impoundment and rises with reservoir drawdown.
