Abstract
The weak structure plane is an important factor affecting the stability of rock slope, and detecting the spatial structure of the weak structural plane is beneficial to analyze the stability of the slope and estimate the quantity of the landslide. Based on 3D electrical resistivity tomography, a model of rock slope with weak structure plane is established, and the characteristics of three-dimensional resistivity imaging of weak structure plane under different ground water conditions are simulated. The results show that the weak structural plane has a better reflection in 3D electrical resistivity tomography; the distribution of weak structural plane of 3D resistivity imaging can be roughly determined under different ground water conditions; the three-dimensional electrical resistivity tomography is feasible in the detection of weak structural plane of rock slope.
