Centrifuge modeling of levees with geocomposite chimney drain subjected to flooding
The objective of the present study is to evaluate the performance of a levee section when subjected to flooding and subsequent seepage through centrifuge model tests. For this, six centrifuge model tests were conducted on a 240 mm high levee model at 30g in a 4.5 m radius large beam geotechnical centrifuge available at the Indian Institute of Technology Bombay, India. A custom-developed flooding simulator is employed to induce identical flood rates on the upstream side of the levee models. Further, using (a) geocomposite (GC) and (b) sand-sandwiched geocomposite (SSGC) as internal chimney drain, the suitability of GC material for dissipation of pore-water pressure (PWP) is also studied. The results of the centrifuge tests are presented and discussed in terms of the development of upstream flood function, subsequent PWP development within the levee body, and the surface settlements observed at the levee's crest. Further, the influence of an internal chimney drain, the material used for its construction, and its type and composition on the seepage response of the levee is discussed in detail. The performance GC chimney drain placed within the levee section subjected to flooding-induced seepage is compared with a conventional sand chimney drain. It is observed that a GC-based chimney drain with sand cushioning on both sides in the horizontal portion of the chimney drain performs well. Further, digital image analysis of SEM micrographs of exhumed GC after centrifuge tests and the analyzed PWP data during sustained flooding-induced seepage is found to corroborate well.
