Slow-moving landslides are common in the Three Gorges reservoir (TGR) region. It may
evolve into massive landslide hazards due to reservoir level fluctuation and rainfall. The …

Both surface and underground rocks in nature often undergo repeated drying and wetting.
The dry‐wet cycle is a weathering effect that includes physical and chemical processes …

Dry-wet cycle and fatigue loading both severely affect the stability of hydraulic engineering.
In this paper, the deterioration process of red sandstone under coupled dry–wet cycle …

To experimentally investigate the stability of underground excavations under dry–wet cycles
and different fissure angles, several rock samples with prefabricated fissure angles were …

The drying and mechanical properties of long flame coal and anthracite after exposure to
various drying temperatures were investigated in this study. Coal samples were processed …

The creep characteristics of sliding zones strongly influence slope deformation and long-
term stability, as well as the occurrence of landslide catastrophes. In this paper, large-scale …

Excessively high pore water pressure presents unpredictable risks to the safety of rock
tunnels in mountainous regions that are predominantly composed of limestone. Investigating …

The operational safety of high-speed railways (HSRs) mainly relies on the flatness of their
track surfaces. In recent years, continuous and stable subgrade uplift deformations in red …

Investigating the effect of wet‐dry (W‐D) cycling on loading–unloading damage is crucial for
ensuring the stability of granite slopes in mountainous areas prone to strong earthquakes …

The occurrence of geological hazards and the instability of geotechnical engineering
structures are closely related to the time-dependent behavior of rock. However, the …
