Quantification of the influence of preferential flow on slope stability using a numerical modeling approach (discussions)

The effect of preferential flow on the stability of landslides is studied through numerical simulation of two types of rainfall events on a hypothetical hillslope. A model is developed that consists of two parts. The first part is a model for combined saturated/unsaturated subsurface flow and is used to compute the spatial and temporal water...

Automatic extraction of moving objects from UAV-borne monocular images using multi-view geometric constraints

This paper proposes a method to detect dynamic objects in the images obtained by a small UAV. Two geometric constraints in multi-view images are used to classify each of the extracted featurepoints as static or dynamic. The first constraint is the epipolar constraint which requires static points to lie on the corresponding epipolar lines in the...

How to Use COMSOL Multiphysics for coupled dual-permeability hydrological and slope stability modeling

Preferential flow paths, such as cracks, macropores, fissures, pipes etc. are common features of highly heterogeneous slopes. During intense rainstorms, preferential flow has a significant influence on subsurface flow and slope stability. Dual-permeability models are widely used to simulate preferential flow, but have not been incorporated into...
