The cutting relationship and development degree of structural plane control the instability mode and scale of rock slope. The trajectory of rock mass after instability is an important basis for the design of dangerous rock prevention. The back slope of a residential area was investigated in this paper. Based on the survey data of the field structure surfaces, the possible instability mode of the slope rock mass was analyzed by using the stereographic projection method. The shear strength parameters of the rock mass were inverted through the investigation of dangerous rock mass. Finally, ANSYS/LS-DYNA was used to simulate the dangerous rock mass motion trajectory.

In order to study the deformation stability of rock slope during the excavation of cutting slope and ensure the safety of rock slope during construction and operation period, this article analyzed the deformation law of a typical slope excavation by monitoring the surface deformation and the internal displacement of the rock mass. The surface deformation of the slope is monitored by setting monitoring points, and the internal deformation of the slope is monitored by installing multipoint displacement meters and inclinometers. Therefore, the relationship between slope excavation and deformation is obtained. The analysis of monitoring results shows that the slope is stable before excavation, and the displacement of the slope is gradually increased with the slope excavation. After the excavation, the displacement of each slope tends to converge. The maximum displacement in surface monitoring points is 12.30 mm, and the displacement parallels to the direction of the expressway. The maximum vertical displacement in surface monitoring points is 10.60 mm which occurred in the third step; the maximum internal displacement is 11.02 mm which mainly occurs in the weak structural plane of the rock boundary. During the excavation of the weak rock slope, the slope rock mass is prone to large displacement deformation. After the excavation, the slope surface displacement and internal displacement tend to converge in a short time.

In this study, through an analysis of vibration response characteristics of joint surface stiffness on dangerous rock mass, the relationship formula between amplitude ratio of the dangerous rock mass to the bedrock and the length of the bonding section of the joint surface is determined. The stability of the rock mass can be evaluated by combining the formula with the existing rock-mass limit equilibrium theory. This study proposes the existence of a resonance bonding length for the dangerous rock mass. When the length of the bonding section reaches the resonance bonding length, the dangerous rock mass has the largest response to the bedrock vibration. The study found that when the length of the bonding section of the dangerous rock mass is longer than the resonance bonding length, the amplitude ratio increases with the decrease of the bonding section and increases with the increase of the vibration frequency of the bedrock. When the length of the bonding section of the dangerous rock body is shorter than the resonance bonding length, the amplitude ratio decreases with the decrease of the bonding section and decreases with the increase of the vibration frequency of the bedrock. Indoor experiments were conducted by collecting the vibration time-history curves of rock blocks and stone piers and performing analysis and calculation, which proved the accuracy of the analytical results. Through the amplitude ratio of the dangerous rock mass and the bedrock, the bonding length can be calculated. This method can improve the calculation accuracy of the stability coefficient K of the dangerous rock mass.

Excavation unloading zone corresponds to stress decreased area of slope rock mass after excavation. Quality of slope rock mass in this area will be degraded due to excavation disturbance, and the mechanical parameters of rock mass will be also degraded accordingly. Therefore, determining the range of excavation unloading zone accurately is one of the key factors to ensure the rationality and validity of numerical simulation results of rock slope excavation. In this paper, the range of excavation unloading zone is determined by comparing stress field before and after excavation, choosing stress component perpendicular to excavation face as comparative standard in calculation, which can be calculated by computer program with FLAC software. Stress adjustment of slope rock mass due to excavation is a dynamic and changing progress, so the range of excavation unloading zone is changing during excavation, which can be achieved by a cycling program in numerical simulation. The correctness and usefulness of this method is proved by the calculation results of example analysis.

Assessment of the stability of natural and artificial rock slopes is an important topic in the rock mechanics sciences. One of the most widely used methods for this purpose is the classification of the slope rock mass. In the recent decades, several rock slope classification systems are presented by many researchers. Each one of these rock mass classification systems uses different parameters and rating systems. These differences are due to the diversity of affecting parameters and the degree of influence on the rock slope stability. Another important point in rock slope stability is appraisal hazard and risk analysis. In the risk analysis, the degree of danger of rock slope instability is determined. The Lashotor pass is located in the Shiraz-Isfahan highway in Iran. Field surveys indicate that there are high potentialities of instability in the road cut slopes of the Lashotor pass. In the current paper, the stability of the rock slopes in the Lashotor pass is studied comprehensively with different classification methods. For risk analyses, we estimated dangerous area by use of the RocFall software. Furthermore, the dangers of falling rocks for the vehicles passing the Lashotor pass are estimated according to rockfall hazard rating system.

The slope stability in an open-pit mine is closely related to the production safety and economic benefit of the mine. As a result of the increase in the number and scale of mine slopes, slope instability is frequently encountered in mines. Therefore, it is of scientific and social significance to strengthen the study of the stability of the slope rock mass. To accurately classify the stability of the slope rock mass in an open-pit mine, a new stability evaluation model of the slope rock mass was established based on variable weight and matter–element extension theory. First, based on the main evaluation indexes of geology, the environment, and engineering, the stability evaluation index system of the slope rock mass was constructed using the corresponding classification criteria of the evaluation index. Second, the constant weight of the evaluation index value was calculated using extremum entropy theory, and variable weight theory was used to optimize the constant weight to obtain the variable weight of the evaluation index value. Based on matter–element extension theory, the comprehensive correlation between the upper and lower limit indexes in the classification criteria and each classification was calculated, in addition to the comprehensive correlation between the rock mass indexes and the stability grade of each slope. Finally, the grade variable method was used to calculate the grade variable interval corresponding to the classification criteria of the evaluation index and the grade variable value of each slope rock mass, so as to determine the stability grade of the slope rock. The comparison results showed that the classification results of the proposed model are in line with engineering practice, and more accurate than those of the hierarchical-extension model and the multi-level unascertained measure-set pair analysis model.

Abstract. This article describes an innovative, complex and affordable monitoring system designed for joint observation of environmental parameters, rock block dilatations and temperature distribution inside the rock mass with a newly designed 3-meter borehole temperature sensor. Global radiation balance data are provided by pyranometers. The system introduces a novel approach for internal rock mass temperature measurement, which is crucial for the assessment of the changes in the stress field inside the rock slope influencing its stability. The innovative approach uses an almost identical monitoring system at different sites allowing easy setup, modularity and comparison of results. The components of the monitoring system are cheap, off-the-shelf and easy to replace. Using this newly designed system, we are currently monitoring three different sites, where the potential rock fall may endanger society assets below. The first results show differences between instrumented sites, although data time-series are relatively short. Temperature run inside the rock mass differs for each site significantly. This is very likely caused by different aspects of the rock slopes and different rock types. By further monitoring and data processing, using advanced modelling approaches, we expect to explain the differences among the sites, the influence of rock type, aspect and environmental variables on the long-term slope stability.
