High Rock Slope

The meshless methods are particularly suitable for modeling problems with discontinuities such as joints in rock mass. The meshless Shepard and least squares (MSLS) method is a newly developed meshless method, which overcomes some limitations with other meshless methods. In the present paper, the MSLS method is extended for modeling jointed rock mass and the joint is modeled as discontinuity governing the near-field stress. A substantial high rock slope by the dam shoulder of Jinping Hydropower Station is analyzed by the developed method. Safety factors are evaluated based on the stress results along potential slip surfaces and compared with the conventional slice methods. The results demonstrate the feasibility of using the MSLS method in rock slope stability analysis and also reveal some interesting differences from the conventional slice methods. Some findings and outstanding issues demonstrated in this study are discussed in the end, which can be the topics for future development.

K148+380-480 section of some certain highway is high layered dip cut slope. Weak surfaces, joints and damping load tension fissures of steep dip have significant effect on slope stability during excavation. The geological conditions and rock mass structure characteristics of the slope are analyzed in the paper. Failure patterns and deformation processes are simulated with UDEC discrete element numerical simulation software based on three-dimension (3D) and two-dimension (2D) discrete element method respectively. Besides, key factors that control slope deformation and failure are discussed.

Dagangshan Hydropower Station

A high-resolution microseismic (MS) monitoring system was implemented at the right bank slope of the Dagangshan hydropower station in May 2010 to analyse the slope stability subjected to continuous excavation. The MS monitoring system could real-time capture a large number of seismic events occurring inside the rock slope. The identification and delineation of rock mass damage subject to excavation and consolidation grouting can be conducted based on the analysis of tempospatial distribution of MS events. However, how to qualitatively evaluate the stability of the rock slope by utilizing these MS data remains challenging. A damage model based on MS data was proposed to analyse the rock mass damage, and a 3D finite element method model of the rock slope was also established. The deteriorated mechanical parameters of rock mass were determined according to the model elements considering the effect of MS damage. With this method, we can explore the effect of MS activities, which are caused by rock mass damage subjected to excavation and strength degradation to the dynamic instability of the slope. When the MS damage effect was taken into account, the safety factor of the rock slope was reduced by 0.18 compared to the original rock slope model without considering the effect. The simulated results show that MS activities, which are subjected to excavation unloading, have only a limited effect on the stability of the right bank slope. The proposed method is proven to be a better approach for the dynamical assessment of rock slope stability and will provide valuable references for other similar rock slopes.

<p>This paper explores the applicability of a modified Q classification system and its component parameters for analysis and conclusion of site investigation data to estimate rock slope stability. Based on the literature, Q classification system has high applicable potential for evaluation of rock mass quality. Therefore, in this study, it was used with RMR and SMR rock mass classification systems to assess stability or instability of different rock slopes along the Hamedan-Ganjnameh-Tuyserkan road, Hamedan province west of Iran. Furthermore, a modified rock mass classification system namely Slope Quality Rating (SQR) was proposed based on the correction of the Q classification parameters and calculating some new parameters such as dip and strike of discontinuities and the method of rock excavation or blasting. For this purpose, the SMR and RMR rock mass classifications were also needed. By measuring SQR for different rock slopes, it will be possible to measure Slope Mass Rating (SMR).</p><p> </p><p><strong>Evaluación del sistema Q modificado de clasificación del macizo rocoso para el análisis de estabilidad de pendiente de roca</strong></p><p> </p><p><strong>Resumen</strong></p>Este artículo explora la aplicabilidad del sistema de clasificación Q modificado y sus parámetros para analizar y determinar la información estimada de estabilidad de pendiente de roca en el sitio determinado de estudio.

The Stability

The rock mass structure of granite is massive, so the stability of granite slope is good. Massive rock become stratoid structure when the rock mass contain discontinuities such as joints and faults. The deformation and destruction of the slope rock mass is controlled by the behaviour and orientation of the discontinuities. Especially, the over-dip discontinuities controlled the slope stability. In this paper, based on the abundant field investigation on the slope in left bank diversion tunnel inlets of Nuozadu power station in Lancang River, the types of rock mass structures and the combination between structural planes and slope surface are studied in detail so as to analyze the slope deformation mechanism. Finally, the slope stability is researched systematically by limit equilibrium method and FLAC numerical simulation analysis. A set of technical and methodological system on stability research of over-dip stratoid structure rock slope will hoped to be established.
