Numerical Study of the Influence of the Spatial Distribution of Oversized Rock Blocks on the Stability of Soil-Rock Mixture Slopes

open access: yesAdvances in Civil Engineering, 2023
Soil-rock mixtures (S-RMs), as special engineering geological materials, are widely distributed in mountainous regions and are important hosts of slope disasters.
