Summary: | Landslide is one of natural hazard that is not unfamiliar disaster in Malaysia.
Malaysia has experienced this disaster many times since 1969. This natural hazard has become a major
research concern for Malaysian government when many people were injured badly and even had been
killed. Many previous research works published in the open literature aimed at designing a system that
could detect landslide in early stage before the landslide becomes catastrophic. This paper presents the
early works on a major work-in-progress landslide early warning system for Malaysian environment.
The aim of this system is to develop the most efficiently reliable cost-effective system in which slight
earth movements are monitored continuously. The challenge this work aims at is to work with a low
budget system that produces efficient performance. Hence, the material used is off-the-shelf. Early
design optimization results of the vibration sensor used is quite promising detecting the slightest faint
tremors, which are amplified using the best vibration chamber available. It is shown that the choice of
proper pipe length and diameter dimensions in combination to a gravel to exaggerate the produced
higher sensitivity level noise of 5 dB. |
