Evolution of macro-meso properties of intact loess under long-term seepage and its influence on irrigation-induced loess flowslides
The loess tableland provides an excellent site for people to live and cultivate. However, flowslides occur frequently on the slope of loess...
-
Study on the causes, deformation and failure mechanisms of loess multistage collapse
Loess has typical vertical joint development characteristics, making it prone to develop relief joints under the action of pore water pressure and...

Initiation Mechanism of Loess Mudflows by Flume Experiments
The structure of loess is loose, and the shear strength of loess drops sharply after contact with water. Therefore, loess mudflows have become a...
-
Microscopic mechanisms of shear strength variation in acid- and alkali-contaminated loess
The effect of the attack by chemical contaminants on the microstructure of loess and the resultant changes in shear strength properties threaten the...
