Application of the modified Q-slope classification system for sedimentary rock slope stability assessment in Iran

open access: yes, 2020
The Q-slope system is an empirical method for discontinuous rock slope engineering classification and assessment. It has been introduced recently to provide an initial prediction of rock slope stability assessment by applying simple assumptions which ...

Study on the collapse mechanism of slopes containing weak interlayers due to rising water level

open access: yesResults in Engineering
The centrifuge experiment was conducted to investigate the impact of weak interlayer reservoir bank slope water level rise on slope stability. The analysis of the experimental data revealed that the collapse of the reservoir bank slope was primarily ...

High Steep Rock Slope Instability Mechanism Induced by the Pillar Deterioration in the Mountain Mining Area

open access: yesMathematics, 2023
In hilly regions, landslides or slope failures are very common phenomena, when underground mineral resources are excavated. In this study, some landslide disasters in a mountain mining area were analyzed. The engineering geological and instability reason

Analysis of acoustic emission patterns for monitoring of rock slope deformation mechanisms [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Acoustic emission (AE) is generated in soil and rock materials by rearrangement of particles during displacement or increasing damage in the microstructure preceding a collapse; therefore AE is appropriate for estimation of slope degradation. To overcome

Stability Analysis of Soil and Rock Mixed Slope Based on Random Heterogeneous Structure

open access: yesAdvances in Civil Engineering
Due to the complexity in the heterogeneous internal structure and interactions between rocks and soil, the slide of soil–rock mixed slope is usually more complex than that of a homogeneous soil slope.

Slope engineering geology characteristics and stability evaluation of a grand bridge to Chengdu bank on the Sichuan-Tibet Railway

open access: yesShuiwen dizhi gongcheng dizhi, 2021
The planned grand bridge is an important control bridge along the Sichuan-Tibet Railway. A large- scale bedding rock collapse occurred on the slope of the Baqu river side of Chengdu bank, with the protruding ridge, high elevation difference, complex and ...

Tow-Dimensional Simulation Analysis of Rock Slope Failure by DEM Using Bonding Force between Particles [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
As is known, there are many fractures in rock slope, and these fractures are often the cause of failure. Especially, the mechanism of toppling failure depends on fractures in rock slope.

Relationship between the Groundwater Fluctuation and Deformation Behavior of Rock Slope at Mt. Buko

open access: yesJournal of MMIJ, 2018
In the present study, the relation between groundwater fluctuations on a rock slope and the dis-placement of the Mt. Buko rock slope is analyzed. In general, the strength of a rock mass behavior is subject to the influence of water.
