Study of rainfall induced landslide with different slope profile
The Lesser Himalayan Shimla district experiences significant rainfall during the monsoons. Landslides caused by slope failures occur in the area during rainy seasons. In the Shimla district, landslides are a serious issue. Over the past few decades, more landslides & subsidence’s have occurred as a result of the building of roads and structures on top of the weak geological structure. In this study, the finite element software was used to analyse the stability of the slope. In this work, a failing slope in the Shimla region of Himachal Pradesh is taken into consideration, and numerical modelling was used to examine its stability at various slope angles including before & after rainfalls of various intensities i.e., maximum rainfall, minimum rainfall, and average rainfall. Factor of safety before rainfall or pre-monsoon was greater than 1, indicating a stable slope. For the slope with slope angle 37.65° and 42° the factor of safety came out to be 0.992 and 0.928 at max. rainfall which is less than 1 that indicates an unstable slope. This study establishes the Himachal Pradesh region’s high susceptibility to rainfall-induced landslides, and it identifies critical slip surfaces that may be useful for future mitigation efforts.
