【 摘 要 】

This paper presents an improved slope stability sensitivity analysis (ISSSA) model that takes anchoring factors into consideration in umbrella-anchored sand and clay slopes under reservoir water level fluctuation. The results of the ISSSA model show that the slope inclination and the layout density of anchors are the main controlling factors for sand slope stability under fluctuation of the water level, while the slope inclination and water head height are the main controlling factors for slope stability in the Cangjiang bridge—Yingpan slope of Yunnan province in China. Moreover, there is an optimum anchorage angle, in the range of 25–45 degrees, which has the greatest influence on slope stability. The fluctuation of the reservoir water level is an important factor that triggers slope instability; in particular, a sudden drop in the surface water level can easily lead to landslides; therefore, corresponding measures should be implemented in a timely manner in order to mitigate landslide disasters.
