Real Time Slope Failure Prediction System

Abstract

Slope failures are most prominent in hilly regions facing heavy downpour of water. This leads to blockage of roads, loss of life and economy, etc. This can be detected prior to its commencement by using an array of sensors integrated with a microcontroller by precise programming and calibration. But implementation of such a system in real world is extremely difficult due to unpredictable conditions. This paper focuses on predicting failure of slope in a controlled environment. This reduces errors and difficulty in experimental setup. We were successful in predicting failure of the designed slope under conditions maintained with the help of Arduino and Moisture sensors. Telemetry program was used to plot data on graph.
