Abstract

The surface wave method (SWM) and the screw weight sounding (SWS) are employed as a geophysical exploration method and a sounding test, respectively to identify the spatial distribution of the stiffness of an earth-fill dam in the present study. The ensemble Kalman filter (EnKF) is used as a data assimilation technique. It can estimate the spatial distribution of the Young’s modulus as the stiffness of an earth-fill dam by assimilating the travel time to the first arrival of the surface waves. By the ensemble data assimilation, the measured data from the SWM is applied to simultaneously estimate the Young's modulus and evaluate the uncertainties. The SWS results are employed as the prior information to generate the initial ensemble through the sequential Gaussian simulation (sGs). Proposed method has been applied to the actual data of the SWM and the SWS measured at an earth-fill dam site. Consequently, it has been clarified the proposed approach could identify the appropriate random field of Young's modulus.
