Abstract
A three-dimensional (3D) seepage-flow numerical simulation model was developed for seepage analysis of a landslide dam. A 3D seepage-flow numerical simulation model coupled with a two-dimensional (2D) surface flow and erosion/deposition model was developed for seepage analysis of a slope due to a rainfall event. The conventional water-phase (one-phase) seepage-flow model assumed only water-phase flow in seepage analysis, which was inadequate for unsaturated soil domains. A water-air two-phase seepage-flow model that considers both the water and air phases in the seepage-flow process was also used for the seepage analysis. The pore-water pressure and moisture-content data obtained from the seepage-flow model were used to analyze the stability. Janbu's simplified method and the extended Spencer method were used for the stability analysis. The numerical simulation results almost compared well with laboratory experimental measurements.
