Title: | Role of Uncertainity in Soil Hydraulic Properties in Rainfall-Induced Landslides | Authors: | ANASTASIA MARIA SANTOSO | Keywords: | uncertainty, probabilistic, SWCC, unsaturated flow, Metropolis-Hastings, spatial variability | Issue Date: | 7-Jan-2011 | Citation: | ANASTASIA MARIA SANTOSO (2011-01-07). Role of Uncertainity in Soil Hydraulic Properties in Rainfall-Induced Landslides. ScholarBank@NUS Repository. | Abstract: | It is essential to consider the uncertainty in soil properties for a realistic assessment of slope stability. The goal of this study is to propose a framework for the reliability assessment of unsaturated slope under rainfall infiltration based on available data and current state of knowledge. The main contributions are: (1)a joint probability model for SWCC is proposed (2)a modified Metropolis-Hastings algorithm is proposed for an efficient simulation-based reliability estimation (3) the effects of the uncertainty in SWCC and hydraulic conductivity in unsaturated seepage and slope stability are studied systematically. | URI: | http://scholarbank.nus.edu.sg/handle/10635/23770 |
