Basic Study on Initial Deformation of Embankment due to Rainfall by Experiment and Simulation

摘要

This paper discussed the coefficient of permeability for prediction of water level and the deformation modulus for prediction of deformation of the model embankment. The seepage and deformation analysis is carried out on the embankment collapse test due to rainfall. As a simulation result, the value of coefficient of permeability of embankment model is larger than a coefficient of permeability by laboratory test. Deformation of embankment of model test can be simulated roughly by considering the nonlinear of deformation modulus.
