Lvliang Typical Loess Landslide Mechanism and Characteristics
Applied Mechanics and Materials, 2011 The loess area ecology environment is very fragile, happening various geological disasters, loess landslides is one of the most mainly the geological disasters in loess area. Lvliang region loess hilly develops common, with the human economic activities increasing, inducing a lot of loess landslides. Taking typical loess landslides as the main research

Distribution and Genetic Types of Loess Landslides in China
Journal of Asian Earth Sciences, 2019Abstract In this study, 14,544 loess landslides collected from the Loess Plateau of China are used to reveal their distribution and origins. Main factors considered include landslide density, regional tectonics, soil properties, geomorphic structure, rainfall distribution, seismic activity, and human activity.

Hypermobility of a Catastrophic Earthquake-Induced Loess Landslide
Engineering GeologyLandslide mobility refers to how far and fast a landslide can move downslope. It controls landslide impact areas and damage power. Highly mobile landslides are often initiated on slopes steeper than 30°. However, on 18 December 2023, an earthquake-induced landslide (35°52′54″N, 102°51′10″E) exhibited extraordinary mobility, with an overall travel angle

Pore-Pressure Generation and Fluidization in a Loess Landslide Triggered by the 1920 Haiyuan Earthquake, China: A Case Study [PDF]
Engineering Geology, 2014 During the 1920 Haiyuan earthquake, numerous catastrophic landslides were triggered in the loess area in Northwest China. We investigated in detail a large example of these landslides, referred to as Dangjiacha landslide in this paper.

Loess Landslide Inventory Map Based on GF-1 Satellite Imagery
Remote Sensing, 2017 Rainfall-induced landslides are a major threat in the hilly and gully regions of the Loess Plateau. Landslide mapping via field investigations is challenging and impractical in this complex region because of its numerous gullies.

Loess Stratigraphy and Loess Landslides in the Chinese Loess Plateau
2020Chinese Loess is a dust deposit brought by wind from North-West desert. In the past four decades, the age and the strata of the loess stratigraphy were well defined by dating and correlating with deep sea core isotopic curves. A standard loess stratigraphic profile and the correlation among the different areas are introduced, and typical river terrace ...

Liquefaction of loess landslides as a consequence of irrigation
Quarterly Journal of Engineering Geology and Hydrogeology, 2018Most landslides on the Loess Tableland (Shaanxi, China) are of the sliding-flow type, with long run-out distances. These landslides, which tend to be triggered by irrigation, result in loss of life and damage to infrastructure. In order to reveal the characteristics and mechanisms of sliding-flow landslides, field investigations, surveys and indoor ...

Loess Deposit and Loess Landslides on the Chinese Loess Plateau
2012Chinese Loess is a wind origin deposit which records the continuous Quaternary history. In the past 30 years, the loess stratigraphy has achieved a great advantage that the absolute age and the litho-strata were well defined by dating and correlating with deep sea core isotopic curves.

A Landslide Case Along a Loess Plateau
2013 Fourth International Conference on Digital Manufacturing & Automation, 2013The purpose of this paper is to present a landslide case along a high loess plateau by field investigation, laboratory tests and numerical analysis. The factors of the high loess slope terrain and environmental that induced the landslide are investigated.
