Sediment Sorting Characteristics and Transport Mechanism of Slope Erosion of Engineering Deposit
In order to reveal the sorting characteristics and transportation mechanism of erosion sediment driven by runoff on the steep slope of engineering deposit
the field simulated runoff scouring test under three upper inflows of 10
20
and 30 L/min were designed
and the particle distribution characteristics of erosion sediment on the steep slope (32°) of the engineering deposit body in Yangling were analyzed. The results showed that the clay and fine silt in the eroded sediment (before dispersion) increased significantly compared with the original soil
which was easy to produce erosion. The fuction of runoff on the fragmentation of aggregates affected the clay content of eroded sediment. The clay content was negatively correlated with the runoff power when the runoff power was less than 1.71 N/ (m·s)
but it was positively correlated when runoff power was greater than 3.89 N/(m·s). In sediment
fine and coarse silt particles were mainly transported in the form of single grain
while clay and sand particles were mostly transported in the form of aggregates. In eroded sediment
clay particles were enriched and sand particles were depleted. The particle size of sediment determined its main transportation mode
sediment particles less than 0.11 mm were mainly suspension/saltation transport
and sediment particles more than 0.11 mm were mainly rolling transport. The contribution rate of rolling transport increased first and then decreased with the increasing of runoff transport capacity. The conclusion of this study was conductive to reveal the mechanism of slope water erosion process of engineering deposit body
and could provide scientific basis for improving the prediction accuracy of slope water erosion model on the steep slope of engineering accumulation.
