Research Abstract |
This study aims to promote new methodology of risk evaluation of landslides induced by combined effects of earthquake and rainfall, based on geotechnical testing which can reproduce any sliding surface condition as well as recent advanced strong ground motion assessment prediction in the slopes. We conducted field investigation in various landslide sites in Japan and other countries including the 2008 Iwate-Miyagi Nairiku Earthquake. Sampled soils were subjected to testing for examining the effects of ground water and other slope conditions on the Sliding-Surface Liquefaction (SSL) potential. SSL is the key mechanism of landslide rapid and long run-out movements. The achievements includes those new findings including that, significant extremely high mobility could be expected even in unsaturated ground material under strong ground motion causing certain shear displacement. Those shall contribute to new methodologies of practical hazard mapping of landslides affected by combined effects of earthquake events and rainfall/ground water conditions.
