The Effect of Rainfall Variability on Slope Stability in Canada Hill, Miri
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Canada hill is about 200 m high and located in Miri, Sarawak. Landslide is found commonly happens in Canada Hill areas and it has become a threat to the nearby villagers. This study investigates the rainfall intensity to the stability of slope failures. To achieve this objective, a slope located in Canada Hill was selected for numerical modelling. The numerical software SEEP/W was adopted for seepage analysis while SLOPE/W for stability of the slope. The parameters such as shear strength, permeability, soil water characteristic curve etc. were based on literature. The modelling of rainfall intensity was referred to historical data. The minimum, maximum and average rainfall intensity from historical data is chosen to model the infiltration of rainfall. The numerical results showed that with the continuous min. rainfall intensity of 1.509 mm/hr, the slope will not be saturated after 1 day. With the continuous rainfall intensity of 19.241 mm/hr for 24 hours, the residual soil and clay layer will be saturated at 24 hours. This is due to the infiltration of seepage flow and the increase of pore water pressure. The losing of soil suction in residual soil is significant when rainfall intensity is 36.974 mm/hr. The pore water pressure tends to weaken the soil in terms of reducing in the shear strength and matric suction of the soil. The stability of the slope will be affected. The results show that higher rainfall intensity, the lower the safety factor of the slope. This research provides a good understanding of the influence of rainfall intensity in Miri area to the stability of slope.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
