One of these common disasters is caused by torrential rains or storms, the so-called “landslide”. Numerous methods are available in estimating the stability of slopes against landslides and in analyzing different governing factors involved from one-dimensional approach to three-dimensional cases (Lam and Fredlund, 1993), and from simpler to complex techniques (Duncan, 1996). However, only few models are available that incorporates the effects of rainfall infiltration in slopes and that uses a three-dimensional analysis using data from Geographic Information System (GIS). Thus, this study was established and it aims, generally, to develop simpler models for a 3D slope stability analysis considering the effect of rainfall infiltration by varying groundwater levels; to verify these models; to correlate results with other methods; and, to identify unstable slopes in areas of interests for mitigation purposes. And for this, there were four stochastic models established. Each was defined from the relationship between the location of failure surface and of groundwater table, height of increase in the groundwater table, and from other slope conditions. In the methodology, after gathering the necessary data and establishing the models, first, it is necessary to identify the probability distribution function of the random variables selected. Then, a simulation was conducted by means of a Monte Carlo Simulation Method (MCSM), where iterative process is involved and which will stop not until values converge (Rubenstein, 1981). In the results, the mean value and the distribution of the possible factors of safety is determined, thereby, a probabilistic assessment based on the frequency can be made. It was found that the number of soil columns used (917 columns of 1mx1m cell size) is enough to get satisfactory results and was recommended that the number of iterations be 1000 or higher to meet the convergence criterion.TABLE OF CONTENTS CONTENTS PAGE Preface II Acknowledgment III English Abstract IV Chinese Abstract V List of Tables VI List of Figures VII Notations and Symbols……………………………………………………………………..IX CHAPTER I– INTRODUCTION 1.1 Background of the study 1 1.2 Statement of the objectives 2 1.3 Significance of the study 6 1.4 Scope and limitations of the study 6 Figures in Chapter I 1.1 Damaging storms and floods in the world 3 1.2 Damaging storms and floods in the world 4 1.3 Annual rainfalls in the world 5 CHAPTER II–REVIEW OF RELATED LITERATURE 2.1 Three-dimensional analysis of slope stability 8 2.2 Groundwater variations 15 2.3 Three major approaches of slope analysis 17 2.3.1 Deterministic approach 17 2.3.2 Probabilistic method for slope stability analysis 19 2.3.3 Combined deterministic and reliability approaches 19 2.4 Uncertainty in soil properties 19 2.5 Mechanism of slope failures 20 2.5.1 Shallow sliding 23 2.5.2 Deep-seated sliding 23 Figures in Chapter II 2.1 Considering end effects for φ = 0 12 2.2 Consideration of end effects by Baligh and Azzouz (1975) 13 2.3 Types of slope movements (USGS, 2004) 22 CHAPTER III -
