Loess disintegration is a significant physicochemical and mechanical dissolution process
that occurs when loess comes into contact with water. This phenomenon contributes to …

The special geological characteristics of loess, such as collapsibility and vertical joint
development, usually bring great difficulties to the construction of tunnel inverts. Effectively …

Increases in pore water pressure affect the effective stress state of loess soil, resulting in
deformation and even soil erosion. However, it is still unclear how the mechanical …

This study investigates the evolution of the dynamic characteristics of a solidified dredge
sludge, including the resilient modulus (MR), accumulative plastic strain (ε p) and dam** …

During the rainy season, many slopes are eroded by precipitation on the China Loess
Plateau (CLP). Hence, Guar gum (GG) is used to stabilize the topsoil of loess slopes to …

In the seasonal freeze-thaw region of China, the long-term freeze-thaw cycle (FTC) weakens
the strength of the soil's structure leading to a series of geohazard events such as landslides …

Loess has poor engineering geological properties due to its loose and porous soil structure.
To meet the engineering requirements of bearing capacity of foundations in loess areas …

The effect of the attack by chemical contaminants on the microstructure of loess and the
resultant changes in shear strength properties threaten the safety of engineering projects in …

Landslides frequently occur in the loess-rich Yili region of **njiang, China, due to the
combined effects of wetting-drying and freeze-thaw (WD-FT) cycles, which cause changes in …

The study of the classification and failure modes of Yellow River terrace landslides under the
influence of irrigation projects is of key importance to alleviate the paradox between the …
