Stability Analysis of Slope in Kuranjeri During Kerala Flood 2018 Using PLAXIS-3D
Landslide or landslip is defined as a type of mass movement in which a mass of rock, debris or earth down a slope under the direct influence of gravity. In this study, Kuranjeri of Thrissur district has been selected where landslides occurred during 2018 Kerala floods. In this case, landslide was triggered by incessant heavy rainfall followed by mass movement of debris. An investigation was carried out to discern index properties and soil parameters on the collected soil samples. Limit equilibrium method (LEM) is the most common approach for analysing slope stability by investigating the equilibrium of a soil mass tending to slide down under the influence of gravity. As a powerful alternative advanced numerical method, Finite element method (FEM) quantifies factor of safety against slope instability by strength reduction method of stability analysis using PLAXIS-3D. A comparison is then made between the results of LEM and FEM by in cooperating properties of in situ soil on slope failures. The analysis result unveils that the infiltration of water into the slope resulted in the failure of the slope on account of reduction of shear strength parameter of the soil.
