Propagation Mechanism of Deep-Water Impulse Waves Generated by Landslides in V-Shaped River Channels of Mountain Valleys: Physical Model of Regular Rigid Block
Landslide-induced impulse waves in alpine valleys are a significant risk to large-scale dam and reservoir engineering projects in the surrounding area. In this study, a 1 : 200-scale physical model of landslide-induced impulse waves in a V-shaped river channel was established, and 18 groups of tests...

| description | Landslide-induced impulse waves in alpine valleys are a significant risk to large-scale dam and reservoir engineering projects in the surrounding area. In this study, a 1 : 200-scale physical model of landslide-induced impulse waves in a V-shaped river channel was established, and 18 groups of tests were conducted to evaluate the influence of different parameters, such as the volume and shape of the landslide body, water entry velocity, and water depth of the reservoir. Based on the test results, a dimensionless formula was established for the first wave height of impulse waves caused by a deep-water landslide in a V-shaped channel. An energy conversion law was determined for the impact of landslide-induced impulse waves on the reservoir bank. Finally, a distribution law was obtained for the initial maximum pressure caused by landslide-induced impulse waves along the water depth on the opposite bank. The theoretical predictions of the dimensionless formula showed good agreement with the experimental results, and the energy conversion rate of the landslide-induced impulse waves initially increased and then decreased with an increasing Froude number. The maximum dynamic water pressure showed a triangular distribution with increasing water depth below the surface of the still water body. The impact pressure of the impulse waves on the slope on the opposite bank increased with the water entry velocity. This study provides a scientific basis for the risk prevention and control of landslide-induced impulse waves in river channels feeding into reservoirs. |
