Using Electrical Resistivity Tomography to Monitor the Evolution of Landslides’ Safety Factors under Rainfall: A Feasibility Study Based on Numerical Simulation
Beschreibung:
<jats:p>Although electrical resistivity tomography (ERT) may gather the internal resistivity information from a landslide area in a large-scale, low-cost, and non-invasive manner compared to point-based sensor monitoring technology, the indirect resistivity information obtained cannot directly evaluate the landslide’s current mechanical status, such as stress, strength, etc. Based on ERT monitoring data, a framework for quantitatively and directly evaluating the evolution of the factor of safety (FOS) of landslides during rainfall is proposed. The framework first inverts ERT observation data using the inexact Gauss–Newton method based on multiple constraints to obtain a more realistic resistivity distribution, then calculates the saturation distribution using Archie’s equation, and finally calculates the FOS of landslides using the finite element strength reduction method. Twelve sets of numerical experiments were designed and carried out based on the synthetic data of a theoretical model. The experimental results show that the proposed framework is valid and reliable under various arrays, apparent resistivity noise, and uncertainty in the water-electric correlation curve, with the Dipole-Dipole array outperforming the others in terms of accuracy, sensitivity, and anti-noise capability. The proposed framework is significant in improving ERT monitoring and early warning capabilities for rainfall-induced landslides.</jats:p>
