Multi-source Data-driven Analysis of Deformation and Influencing Factors for Expansive Soil Canal Slopes by ZHANG Yuhan, HU Jiang, LI Xing

“…This approach facilitates a comprehensive analysis of deformation patterns at the slope surface and various subsurface depths, while elucidating the dominant controlling factors governing expansive soil canal slope behavior.Results and Discussions　The study focused on a deep excavated expansive soil canal section (Stake 8+886~12+921) of a major water diversion project, yielding the following key findings: 1) The analysis of 128 Sentinel-1A images from March 2017 to December 2021 revealed that the deformation data obtained through SBAS-InSAR method showed less than 3mm discrepancy with surface vertical displacement measurements at monitoring points (fourth-stage berm at 9+363 and third-stage berm at 11+400), with consistent deformation trends, confirming the reliability of SBAS-InSAR for canal slope deformation monitoring. 2) The study section exhibited LOS deformation rates ranging from -10 to 24 mm/a, demonstrating overall uplift characteristics, with positive LOS deformation showing annual increase. …”
