Abstract
Cohesion is the attraction between adjacent particles within the same material, which is the main inter-controlled factor of fine-grained sediment stability, and thus plays an important role in debris flow hazard early warning. However, there is no quantitative model of cohesion and its inter-controlled factors, including effective internal friction angle, permeability coefficient and density. Therefore, establishing a quantitative model of cohesion and its inter-controlled factors is of considerable significance in debris flow hazard early warning. Taking Beichuan county in southwestern China as the study area, we carried out a series of experiments on cohesion and its inter-controlled factors. Using the value of cohesion as the dependent variable and values of normalized density, normalized logarithm of permeability coefficient and normalized effective internal friction angle as the independent variables, we established a quantitative model of cohesion and its inter-controlled factors by the least-squares multivariate statistical method. Fitting of the model showed that its determination coefficient (R2) was 0.61, indicating that the corresponding correlation coefficient (R) was 0.78. Furthermore, t-tests of the model showed that except for the p value of density, which was 0.05, those of other factors were less than 0.01, indicating that cohesion was significantly correlated to its inter-controlled factors, providing a scientific basis for debris flow hazard early warning.
