Investigated here is how mica content and climate-induced wetting–drying (WD) cycles affect the physical and mechanical properties of MRS. Reconstituted MRS samples with varying mica contents were prepared by mixing muscovite powder with plain residual soil, from which the original mica was removed. These samples were subjected to WD cycles to simulate tropical climate conditions. Geotechnical properties and microstructural changes were analyzed through systematic experimental tests and microscopic observations. The degradation observed during the WD cycles included crack propagation, volumetric swelling, reduced strength, and increased disintegration, all of which were positively correlated with mica content. Notably, for MRS with high mica content, the WD cycles ameliorated the soil brittleness, altering previous perceptions of uniformly low performance for MRS. The effect of mica on MRS under long-term environmental changes is attributed to both the inherent properties of mica and the particle packing structure in the soil. This study enhances the understanding of MRS behavior in tropical climate and provides technical recommendations for further improvement and effective application of this marginal geomaterial.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":11567,"journal":{"name":"Engineering Geology","volume":"346 ","pages":"Article 107899"},"PeriodicalIF":6.9,"publicationDate":"2024-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142929280","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The objectives are as follows: (1) to examine temporal and spatial temperature variations in the anti-frost heave subgrade structure across different cross-sections, with frost depths reaching 2.4–2.8 m; (2) to analyze changes in water content with depth and temperature, noting a 15 % drop in unfrozen water content near 0 °C in winter and a 10 % increase during thaw; (3) to characterize layered deformation evolution and its dynamics in relation to temperature and water content; and (4) to evaluate how the shady-sunny slope phenomenon and cross-sectional form affect subgrade stability. Key findings reveal that: (a) cross-section configuration strongly influences thermal state and water distribution within the subgrade; (b) the peak frost heave, ranging from 1.49 mm in embankments to 2.56 mm in cuttings, varies significantly with cross-section form; and (c) frost heave is affected by both frost penetration depth and the subgrade's hydrological conditions.

An anomalously high concentration of very large and giant landslides (VLGLs) is found around the Bailongjiang block on the eastern margin of the QTP. While these landslides are commonly attributed to active faults, the diversity of landslide types and complex spatial relationships prompt further investigation into the tectonic mechanisms influencing their formation and evolution. In this study, we identify and validate 140 ancient VLGLs, each with an area ≥ 1 km<sup>2</sup>, in the Bailong River Basin. We analyse the spatial distributions, geomorphological characteristics, and necessary controlling and triggering factors of various landslide types in the region. On the basis of limited chronological data, we infer potential periods of landslide formation by examining these controlling and triggering conditions. The results suggest that the primary driver of VLGLs development was the collision between the Bailongjiang block and the Bikou massif. Earthflows along the eastern margin of the Bailongjiang block are influenced mainly by faults, lithology, uplift, and river downcutting and are induced by rainfalls. The current landslide landscapes likely formed during the last interglacial period, following the onset of the Gonghe movement. The southern margin of the Bailongjiang block is characterized by compression uplift and degradation of the rock mass strength, and earthquakes act as triggers for debris slides. The coupling of these three factors indicates the potential for periodic patterns in landslide development within this region.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":11567,"journal":{"name":"Engineering Geology","volume":"346 ","pages":"Article 107889"},"PeriodicalIF":6.9,"publicationDate":"2024-12-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142929302","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This physics-based scenario approach is used to assess the seismic response at Chieti's city center (Abruzzo, Italy) along a laterally varying representative section. The results are compared with those obtained through the AlgoShake2D Finite Element Method (from now on simply FEM) in the same section. Both methods employ a viscous-elastic rock and soil dynamic behavior. In addition, non-linear analyses are performed with FEM method. NDSHA models the directivity and the dispersion due to the medium anelasticity along the propagation path of P and S seismic waves incoming from the bedrock of the section, while FEM uses the popular but very simplified assumption of vertical upward propagation to the surface of only SH waves. FEM implements the equivalent linear approach to simulate the non-linear behavior of soil material under seismic wave solicitations. In Chieti's case study, both FEM and NDSHA results underline how much the stratigraphy contributes to the distortion (amplification/reduction) of the propagating perturbation compared to the reference regional average propagation (1D), as opposed to the topography. FEM acceleration response spectra (both viscous-elastic and equivalent-linear) are naturally enveloped by NDSHA 95% percentile spectrum although the median spectrum and the FEM mean spectrum show similar shapes. The NDSHA amplification functions are larger than the FEM ones, especially for periods lower than 0.5 s. This result can be attributed to the too-simplistic body wave propagation simulated by the FEM approach. The most amplified zone is located at the foothill and the amplification is 3.5 on average below 0.5 s. Although both methods predict a secondary role of the topographic effect, the NDSHA causal signals that consider the directivity of the wavefield, its complex refraction within the propagation medium (Chieti's vertical section), and some possible complexities of the earthquake source indicate that higher amplifications than FEM's ones should be accounted for when more realistic simulations are available.

Adaptive Synthetic Sampling (ADASYN) is used to balance the number of samples of failure and safety classes by generating synthetic samples for the failure sample set, and a Genetic algorithm (GA) is used to optimize the hyper-parameters of ML and ADASYN algorithms to improve the accuracy of the surrogate models. Two criteria are proposed to measure the accuracy of surrogate models built using ML with Genetic-ADASYN algorithms, and a formula is presented to estimate the optimal number of samples for the training set. Based on the surrogate models, reliability indices and failure probabilities of slopes can be readily estimated using the Monte Carlo Simulation Method (MCSM).
