Outline of Research at the Start

本研究では、高速で長距離運動する地すべり現象に焦点を当て、①高速で長距離運動する地すべりの地質、地形及び気象情報等を特化したデータベースの構築、②異なる運動特徴を有する地すべりのすべり面強度特性調査及びそれに基づいた物理法則モデルの構築、③物理法則モデルに基づいた地すべり土塊の運動予測手法の開発と確定、等を行い、地殻変動が活発な地域における壊滅的な地すべり危険度評価手法の開発を行う。

Outline of Annual Research Achievements

In 2023, we preliminarily analyzed the geological and topographical features of some deep-seated landslides that occurred in the Kii Peninsula in 2011. We also conducted field surveys on some landslides triggered by the 2024 Noto Earthquake. Through the field investigation, the local geological settings, topographical features, and the hydrological profiles of some landslides were clarified. Further, we collected soil samples from some of those landslides. We also analyzed the seismic response and damage evaluation of some bedding rock slopes based on the large-scale shaking table tests. The experimental analysis could improve academic understanding of the physical mechanism behind the complex failure phenomenon.

Current Status of Research Progress
Current Status of Research Progress

2: Research has progressed on the whole more than it was originally planned.

Reason

The project is progressing in an orderly manner according to the original research plan. Some basic information of geological and topographic features for those deep-seated landslides had been obtained and preliminary analysis had been conducted. A series ring shear tests will be conducted on those soil samples taken from those landslides that we have surveyed in the past fiscal year. Further, a physics-based risk assessment approach will be built up for those long runout landslides triggered by earthquakes and/or rainfall.

Strategy for Future Research Activity

Following the plan in the research proposal, in fiscal year 2024, we will further analyze the geological, topographical, geotechnical, and seismic response features of those landslides triggered by the 2023 and 2024 Noto Earthquakes, and those deep-seated landslides triggered by the 2011 heavy rainfall in Kii Peninsula.
