Outline of Final Research Achievements

We proposed using microtremor chain array survey to detect the inner structure of landslide dam, and self-potential survey to find groundwater flowing path inside it. They were verified effective through field investigation in Higashi-Takezawa and Terano landslide dams, which were triggered by 2004 Chuetsu earthquake, Akatani and Kuridaira landslide dams, which were triggered by 2011 Kii Peninsula intensive rainfall, and Kel-tor giant landslide dam in Kyrgyz. Artificial landslide dam failure tests were conducted to investigate the failure process and the critical hydrodynamic condition to cause the piping and dam failure. It is found that critical hydraulic gradients for piping erosion and crest failure controlled the failure process. During the failure process, dam crest subsided, hydraulic gradient inside the landslide dam changed, and the turbidity of the water flowing out of the landslide dam suddenly changed. Those phenomena can be used to predict landslide dam failure.
