An empirical model to calculate the breach parameters of landslide and debris-flow dam
Abstract:This paper is to establish an empirical model to calculate the breach parameters of landslide and debris-flow dam under natural conditions for the first time
including the average width bc and the residual height Hd of the breach
and its purpose is to predict the outburst flood peak discharge and maximum water depth caused by the dam-break
so as to provide a scientific basis for the development of disaster prevention and mitigation programs or contingency plans for the lower regions. Based on lots of field works
the data is collected
as well as the analysis of the dam-break characteristics is discussed. Then we select the major factors
including dam height H
dam width B
volume of the dam-lake W
unit volume of the dam in longitudinal V
coefficient of internal friction angle tan and upper limit particle size d90
which affect the breach of landslide and debris-flow dam
to establish empirical relationships between factors (the average width bc and the residual high Hd of the breach). Finally
the empirical model is applied to the instance test
