Resumen

A weak interlayer is the key factor in controlling slope stability. It is of great significance to effectively identify the weak interlayer in the study of spatial and temporal distribution law and the internal structure characteristics of a landslide. Considering the limitations of traditional optical imaging and wave speed test methods, this paper presents a weak interlayer identification method based on borehole photo-acoustic combination measurement. By using the combination of optical imaging and acoustic wave scanning, the multi-source data collection of borehole rock wall and borehole surrounding rock is realized, which effectively captures the comprehensive response characteristics of the weak interlayer. This paper first constructs a multi-source data acquisition technology based on the borehole photo-acoustic combination measurement to realize the visualization of the image information and acoustic data of the target area on the borehole rock wall. Subsequently, the optical image features and the acoustic response characteristics of the weak interlayer are clarified based on the optical image and the acoustic scanning data. The hole wall texture characteristic response function, hole wall integrity characteristic response function, hole wall acoustic characteristic response function and hole wall contour characteristic response function are constructed. Finally, the landslide weak interlayer identification method considering the texture characteristics, complete characteristics, acoustic response characteristics and contour characteristics of the borehole rock wall is proposed, which effectively distinguishes the types of rock mass structural surface and realizes the automatic identification of the weak interlayer. Combined with the case analysis, the correctness and reliability of the present method are verified. The results show that the method can identify the weak interlayer and provide scientific basis for landslide management, which can provide a feasible and effective new way to identify the landslide weak interlayer in practical engineering, with a good application prospect and promotion value.
