본 연구에서는 강우에 따른 사면 내 지반특성 변화와 사면붕괴 형상을 실험적으로 규명하기 위하여 인공강우장치와 모형토조를 이용한 실내모형실험을 수행하였다. 이를 위하여 균질한 모래를 대상으로 모형 실험을 수행하였으며, 계측장치를 이용하여 강우침투에 의한 사면 내 포화양상을 조사하였다. 모형사면은 30°의 경사면에 35°의 사면경사로 조성하였고 강우강도는 50 mm/hr를 적용하였다. 토층의 깊이는 모형토조의 크기를 고려하여 35 cm로 선정하고 TDR센서는 깊이별로 설치하여 시간에 따른 지반특성 변화를 고찰하였다. 실험결과 강우 시 모형사면은 강우침투로 인하여 지표에서 지중으로, 선단부에서 정상부로 포화가 진행됨을 알 수 있다. 즉, 강우의 침투로 인하여 사면의 선단부가 먼저 포화되고 이후 지속적인 강우로 인하여 포화의 영역이 사면의 선단부로부터 정상부로 확대됨을 알 수 있다. 모형사면의 붕괴는 사면의 선단부에서부터 붕괴가 시작되어 이후 사면의 정상부로 확장되는 진행성 사면붕괴가 발생되었으며, 최종 사면붕괴시점에서 붕괴면적이 급격하게 증가하였다. 또한 활동면은 원호활동의 형태로 발생되었다. 한편, 사면 내 모관흡수력이 흙-함수특성곡선(SWCC)에서 산정된 공기함입치(AEV)에 이르게 되면 사면붕괴가 발생되는 것으로 나타났다.

1985년부터 1991년까지 일 강우량 80 mm 이상일 때의 유거량 자료를 이용하여 집중강우시 물유출 양상을 구명하였다. 지표유거가 발생하는 유거 발생 최소 강우량은 지표피복과 경사장에 따라 결정되는 것으로 나타났으며 토성과 경사각에 따라서는 별 차이를 나타내지 않았다. 유거 발생 최소 강우량을 기준으로 그 이후의 유거량은 강우량에 따라 직선적으로 증가하였다. 그러나 이 때의 기울기 즉, 유거율은 토성, 지표 피복형태, 경사각, 경사장에 따라 달라졌다. 유거율은 토성이 세립질로 침투속도가느릴 수록 커졌으며 콩 재배에 비해 물흐름에 대한 저항이 작은 나지에서 컸다. 또한 유거율은 경사각의 제곱근에 비례하여 증가하였으며 경사장이 길어짐에 따라 특정값에 수렴하면서 감소하였다. 이러한 결과를 바탕으로 집중강우 시 유거량을 모사할 수 있는 식을 다음과 같이 개발하였다. $$Runoff=a(s^{0.5}+l^b)(Rainfall-80(1-e^{-bl}))------(9)$$ 이 식에서 a는 토양의 침투특성과 관련된 토양계수, b는 지표 피복의 영향을 나타내는 지표피복계수, s는 경사각(radian), l은 경사장(m)이다. a는 토성에 따라 0.5~0.6으로 나타났으며 세립질일 수록 값이 컸다. b는 피복조건에 따라 나지에서 0.06, 콩 재배시 0.5 정도로 평가되었다.

본 연구에서는 불포화 사면에서 선행강우의 영향을 고려하고자 지반의 초기 포화도를 3가지(36, 51, 77%)로 설정하여 수리학적-역학적 동시 유한요소해석(monolithically coupled finite element analysis)을 수행하였다. 선행강우에 의한 불포화 사면의 불안정성은 사면 내 모관흡수력 분포와 사면표층의 변위를 통하여 확인할 수 있다. 또한 Drucker-Prager model의 항복경계기준(trial failure criterion)을 적용하여 강우 침투에 의한 불포화 사면의 탄성 및 소성거동을 파악하였다. 그 결과, 선행강우에 의한 지반의 초기 포화도가 클수록 강우에 의한 변위가 크게 발생하며 모관흡수력 또한 감소한다. 특히, 모관흡수력은 지반이 건조할수록 빠르게 감소하며, 초기에 동일한 모관흡수력을 갖는 사면표층에서 포화도가 작은 지반일수록 더 빠른 모관흡수력 감소를 보였다. 풍화토의 탄성과 소성거동을 구분하기 위해 사용된 Drucker-Prager model을 통해 사면 파괴가 시작되는 항복경계지점을 확인 할 수 있었다.

The main factor for the amplification of ground motions near the crest or the toe of a slope is the reflection of the incident waves. The effects of the slope topography on the surrounding lands over the crest or at the toe can amplify the seismic responses of buildings. This study investigates the seismic performance of the slope topography and three mid-rise buildings (five, ten, and fifteen-storey) located near the crest and toe of the slope by 3D numerical analysis. The nonlinear model was used to represent the real behavior of building and ground elements. The average results of seven records were used in the investigations. Based on the analysis, the amplification factor of acceleration near the crest and toe of the slope was the most effective at distances of 2.5 and 1.3 times the slope height, respectively. Accordingly, the seismic performance of buildings was studied at a distance equal to the height of the slope from the crest and toe. The seismic response results of buildings showed that the slope topography to have little impact on up to five-storey buildings located near the crest. Taking into account a topography-soil-structure interaction system increases the storey displacement and base shear in the building. Accordingly, in topography-soil-structure interaction analyses, the maximum lateral displacement was increased by 71% and 29% in ten and fifteen-storey buildings, respectively, compare to the soil-structure interaction system. Further, the base shear force was increased by 109% and 78% in these buildings relative to soil-structure interaction analyses.

Recently, for places with poor vegetating environment, such as slopes made of weathered soil or rocks, erosion tranquilizers, coverings and composite fertilizers have been mixed with seeds and sprinkled onto soil. Also, these plant revegetations have been mixed with nets and used to strengthen cohesion. However, this technique often obstructed plant growth and caused pollution because of not decomposing nets. This study has tested influence on plant revegetation B for slope of weathered soil and rocks and decomposition of naturally decomposing polyester filament yarn. In result, it was showed that plant revegetation B does not harm environment in case of applying it to soil slope and enhance protection capacity of slopes as time goes by. Also, naturally decomposing polyester filament yam was analyzed its physical properties with the passage of time and was known that naturally decomposing polyester filament yarn transformed into a structure easy to decompose by hardening. Thus it is considered that the revegetation method used this study was very effective method for plant establishment and stability of slope.

The estimation of key soil properties and subsequent quantitative assessment of the associated uncertainties has always been an important issue in geotechnical engineering. It is well recognized that soil properties vary spatially as a result of depositional and post-depositional processes. The stochastic nature of spatially varying soil properties can be treated as a random field. A practical statistical approach that can be used to systematically model various sources of uncertainty is presented in the context of reliability analysis of slope stability Newly developed expressions for probabilistic characterization of soil properties incorporate sampling and measurement errors, as well as spatial variability and its reduced variance due to spatial averaging. Reliability analyses of the probability of slope failure using the different statistical representations of soil properties show that the incorporation of spatial correlation and conditional simulation leads to significantly lower probability of failure than obtained using simple random variable approach.

Many geotechnical analyses require the investigation of water flow within partially saturated soil zone to incorporate the effect of climatic conditions. It is widely understood that the hydraulic properties of the partially saturated soil should be included in the transient seepage analyses. However, the characteristics of dual porosity soils with dual-mode water retention curve are normally modelled using single-mode mathematical equation for simplification of the analysis. In reality, the rainwater flow can be affected significantly by the dual-mode hydraulic properties of the soil. This paper presents the variations of safety factor for dual porosity soil slope with dual-mode water retention curve and dual-mode unsaturated permeability. This paper includes the development of the new dual-mode unsaturated permeability to represent the characteristics of soil with the dual-mode water retention curve. The finite element analyses were conducted to examine the role of dual-mode water retention curve and dual-mode unsaturated permeability on the variations of safety factor under rainfall loading. The results indicate that the safety factor variations of dual porosity soil slope modelled using the dual-mode water retention curve and the unsaturated permeability equation are lower than those of dual porosity slope modelled using single-mode water retention curve and unsaturated permeability equations.

In Taiwan, an efficient approach for enhancing the stability of colluvium slopes is the drilled shaft method. For slopes with drilled shafts, the soil arching effect is one of the primary factors influencing slope stability and intertwines to the failure mechanism of the pile-soil system. In this study, the contribution of soil arching effect to slope stability is evaluated using the FEM software (Plaxis 3D) with the built-in strength reduction technique. The result indicates the depth of the failure surface is influenced by the S/D ratio (the distance to the diameter of piles), which can reflect the contribution of the soil arching effect to soil stability. When α (rock inclination angles)=β (slope angles) is considered and the S/D ratio=4, the failure surface of the slope is not significantly influenced by the piles. Overall, the soil arching effect is more significant on α=β, especially for the steep slopes. Additionally, the soil arching effect has been included in the proposed stability charts. The proposed charts were validated through two case studies, including that of the well-known Woo-Wan-Chai field in Taiwan. The differences in safety factor (FoS) values between the referenced literature and this study was approximately 4.9%.

Physically-based WEPP watershed version was applied to a watershed, located at Jawoon-ri, Gangwon with very detailed rainfall data, rather than daily rainfall data. Then it was validated with measured sediment data collected at the sediment settling ponds and through overland flow. The $R^2$ and the EI for runoff comparisons were 0.88 and 0.91, respectively. For sediment comparisons, the $R^2$ and the EI values were 0.95 and 0.91. Since the WEPP provides higher accuracies in predicting runoff and sediment yield from the study watershed, various slope scenarios (2%, 3%, 5.5%, 8%, 10%, 13%, 15%, 18%, 20%, 23%, 25%, 28%, 30%) were made and simulated sediment yield values were analyzed to develop appropriate soil erosion management practices. It was found that soil erosion increase linearly with increase in slope of the field in the watershed. However, the soil erosion increases dramatically with the slope of 20% or higher. Therefore special care should be taken for the agricultural field with higher slope of 20% or higher. As shown in this study, the WEPP watershed version is suitable model to predict soil erosion where torrential rainfall events are causing significant amount of soil loss from the field and it can also be used to develop site-specific best management practices.
