Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The objective of this study was to understand the initiation factors and development mechanism of piping in river levees, and to propose a method to estimate the early signs of failure caused by the piping. For this objective, physical model seepage tests using a wide model of a river levee were conducted in a centrifugal acceleration field. As a result, it was confirmed that the depositional distribution of the old river channel in the foundation ground and the width of the levee body in the longitudinal direction of the levee affect the initiation and progression of piping.
