While conventional cement-based micropiles are widely used for slope stabilization, their long curing time limits their application in emergency treatments. This study introduces polymer micropiles as a rapid-response alternative, leveraging the quick-setting and high tensile strength properties of polymer grouts. Field-scale tests and numerical simulations were performed to investigate the mechanical response and settlement deformation characteristics of the bedding slopes reinforced with polymer micropiles under loading. Results showed that polymer micropiles significantly improved slope bearing capacity, reduced crest settlement, and decreased surface displacement. Specifically, the bearing capacity of slopes reinforced with single and double rows of polymer micropiles increased by 111% and 211%, respectively, compared to the unreinforced slope. Settlement at the slope crest decreased by 76.9% and 90.4%, while lateral displacement at the slope toe was reduced by 77.8% and 92.8%. The final slope morphologies showed significant differences, with pronounced extrusion and soil detachment observed in the untreated slope, contrasted by only minor surface cracks in the polymer micropile reinforced slope. The simulations revealed that the micropiles fractured at the sliding plane when reaching the ultimate bearing capacity, indicating the compatibility of polymer micropile with the slope soils and the reinforcing effect of the micropiles. These findings demonstrate the feasibility and effectiveness of polymer micropiles for emergency landslide stabilization, offering a critical window for disaster response and permanent slope stabilization efforts.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":500,"journal":{"name":"Bulletin of Engineering Geology and the Environment","volume":"84 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.7,"publicationDate":"2025-02-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143379815","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The dangerous rock block identification has been realized for decades in rock mechanics and engineering. However, studies on the automated identification of in-situ dangerous rock blocks (ISDRBs) are limited. In this study, a novel framework is proposed for automated extraction of ISDRBs based on a new semi-deterministic block theory considering discontinuity geometric characteristics. It involves four main steps: (1) establishment of the slope point cloud model using an unmanned aerial vehicle multi-angle photography method; (2) automated identification and information extraction of discontinuities based on various algorithms; (3) identification and geometrical characterization of in-situ rock blocks (ISRBs) based on the improved block candidates searching algorithm and polyhedral modeling; (4) stability analysis of ISRBs to extract ISDRBs based on the semi-deterministic block theory. In this framework, the actual positions, geometric characteristics, and safety factors of ISDRBs can be well-reflected, providing a quantitative reference for rockfall disaster prevention and mitigation design. The framework is applied to the stability analysis of the steep rocky slope on the left bank of the Nujiang (NJ) Bridge. The analysis results indicate that, after considering discontinuity geometric characteristics, 52.6% of the ISDRBs cannot form. Ultimately, 45 ISDRBs are identified, predominantly tetrahedron in geometry, and their volumes range from 0.02 to 32.57 <span>(:{text{m}}^{text{3}})</span>, with the majority being smaller than 5 <span>(:{text{m}}^{text{3}})</span>. A convenient and feasible evaluation method based on ISDRB information is finally proposed to further discuss the blocky rock mass system stability. In conclusion, automated extraction of ISDRBs can provide accurate quantitative references for rockfall disaster prevention and mitigation design.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":500,"journal":{"name":"Bulletin of Engineering Geology and the Environment","volume":"84 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.7,"publicationDate":"2025-02-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143373310","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The simulation results indicate that the thick-layered rock beams within the slope play a critical role in influencing the failure process of the slope’s rock layers. Furthermore, the study investigates how the location and thickness of rock beams impact the deformation of SHIADSs within the reservoir area. As the rock beam’s location moves closer to the interior of the slope, the area of the slide body above the rock beam decreases considerably, while the area below the rock beam increases significantly. As the rock beam’s thickness increases, the area of the slide body above the rock beam decreases significantly, while the area below it remains largely unchanged. The forces in the rock beams are consistent with the independent cantilever beam model, and the changes in location and thickness are essentially changes in the tensile stresses in the rock beams.

This study presents an advanced numerical approach to address strain-softening and state transitions in landfill flowslide disasters. A solid-viscous constitutive model, which decomposes effective stress into solid and viscous stress components, is introduced. The solid-liquid interaction is modeled through coupled displacement-pore pressure formulations. Validation of the proposed model extends beyond prior field data to include ring shear tests, flowslide model tests and centrifuge experiments, ensuring robust assessment of viscous stress and the solid-viscous constitutive formulation. Two case studies involving heavy rainfall and high leachate level demonstrate the approach’s advantages. Under heavy rainfall, failure initiates above the wetting front due to the dissipation of matrix suction and weakening fiber embedment. In contrast, high leachate level-induced flowslides exhibit deeper failure surfaces and longer sliding distances. Complete slope failure occurs when the unsaturated waste reaches its peak strength, and the failure surface fully penetrates. These findings provide critical insights into the mechanisms driving landfill flowslides and offer guidance for risk mitigation strategies in waste management practices. </p></div>","PeriodicalId":500,"journal":{"name":"Bulletin of Engineering Geology and the Environment","volume":"84 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.7,"publicationDate":"2025-02-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143361664","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Specimens with different soluble salt contents exhibited distinct UWC, which could be categorized into three stages based on temperature. A crystal precipitation stage was observed beyond the soluble salt content of 14 g/kg. Moreover, the proposed fitting model for UWC by incorporating the soluble salt content into the Gardner model demonstrated high accuracy. The MS can also be divided into three stages with temperature. Notably, specimens with soluble salt contents of 20 and 26 g/kg exhibited nonlinear increases in MS at temperatures of 5 °C and 10 °C due to crystal precipitation.

The experimental findings reveal that continuously graded IGD and discontinuously graded IGD are vulnerable to localized erosion and piping erosion, respectively. Furthermore, the critical hydraulic gradient for erosion diminishes with the reduction in fine particle content, unevenness coefficient, and hydraulic gradient in the lower layer. Numerical simulations are conducted to analyze the erosion mechanism and to assess the impact of fine particle migration and particle content on the overall stability. The findings from these simulations indicate that the absence of fine particles in the middle and upper layers of IGD leads to an inability to replenish particle loss in the lower layer, thereby exacerbating erosion. Consequently, IGD, particularly with those with discontinuous gradation, may play a pivotal role in promoting erosion behavior.

Cross-validation of reference and laboratory data exposed regional variations in data distribution characteristics, and statistical analysis showed that existing equations, developed from limited data, are not universally applicable.

Furthermore, our findings revealed that an augmentation in precipitation not only exacerbated the incidence of rainstorms, thereby facilitating the occurrence frequency of devastating landslides, but also demonstrated a correlation between annual precipitation and variations in the deformation trend of landslides. Smaller values of the magnitude (reciprocal), depth, and epicentral distance resulted in greater surface displacement of the landslide; conversely, larger values resulted in smaller surface displacement.
