Capabilities of Continuous and Discontinuous Modelling of a Complex, Structurally Controlled Landslide
Abstract In order to assess the stability of a landslide, continuous or discontinuous models have been proposed. Here, we compare the two methods in their capability to provide a reliable hazard assessment. Both models have been applied to long term monitoring data obtained from a landslide located in Passo della Morte (Eastern Italian Alps). The availability of accurate data obtained in a long-term campaign is a pre-requisite to correctly understand the dynamics of the process and to implement a sound numerical model. First, a detailed geological investigation located the different soil layers and rock formations with their distribution along the slope, allowing the identification of the structural controls of the unstable rock mass. Then, landslide long term monitoring data provided information on the type of failure mechanism. Both the continuous and discontinuous numerical solutions describe the kinematics for the landslide and allow to delineate a hazard assessment for the investigated area. The continuous model is better in delineating the development of the deep slip surface while the discontinuous allows to recreate the toppling phenomenon.
