Abstract The stability evaluation of the damaged landslide is important for rescue work and emergency operation. This paper investigated a predisposing geological emergence, inducing the factors and deformation processes of the Zhongbao landslide, which happened on 25 July 2020. The stability of the damaged landslide was evaluated by an integrated monitoring system consisting of ground-based radar, unmanned aerial vehicles, airborne Lidar, thermal infrared temperature monitoring, GNSS displacement monitoring, deep displacement monitoring and rainfall monitoring. The strata and weak layer controlled the landslide failure, and topography defined the boundary of the failed rock mass. A continually intensive rainfall caused the deformation and accelerated failure of the landslide. The shallow and steep deposit (Part I) firstly slid at a high velocity, and then pushed the rear part of the landslide (Part II) to deform, forming numerous cracks, and the rainfall infiltrated into the rock mass. Finally, the rock and soil mass sliding along the weak layer, a barrier dam and a barrier lake were formed. The monitoring results showed that after the landslide failure, there were still local collapse and deformation occurrence which threatened rescue work and barrier lake excavation. Therefore, the barrier dam wasn’t excavated until the accumulation rate gradually stabilized on July 28. Moreover, most of the reactivated deposits still accumulated in the transportation and source areas. Thus, in August, the displacement of the damaged landslide gradually accelerated in a stepwise manner, and responded strongly to rainfall, especially in the accumulation area, so that it was inferred that the damaged landslide could slide again and caused a more threatening and severe failure. The analysis results of the study area can provide references for the failure mechanism of a rainfall-induced landslide and the stability evaluation of a damaged landslide.

The stability analysis of damaged landslides and unstable debris is important for rescue work and emergency operations. This paper investigates a predisposed geological emergence, inducing the factors and deformation processes of the Zhongbao landslide, which happened on July 25, 2020. The stability of the landslide debris was evaluated by an integrated monitoring system consisting of ground-based radar, unmanned aerial vehicles, airborne Lidar, thermal infrared temperature monitoring, GNSS displacement monitoring, deep displacement monitoring, and rainfall monitoring. The strata and weak layer controlled the landslide failure, and topography defined the boundary of the failed rock mass. A continually intensive rainfall caused the deformation and accelerated failure of the landslide. The shallow and steep deposit (Part I) firstly slid at a high velocity, and then pushed the rear part of the landslide (Part II) to deform, forming numerous cracks, which accelerated the rainfall infiltrating into the rock mass. The moisture content increase could decrease the strength of the shale rock within the bedding planes. Finally, with the rock and soil mass sliding along the weak layer, a barrier dam and a barrier lake were formed. The monitoring and numerical simulation results showed that after the landslide failure, there was still local collapse and deformation occurrences which threatened rescue work and barrier lake excavation, and the stability of the accumulation area gradually decreased as the rainfall increased. Therefore, the barrier dam was not excavated until the accumulation rate gradually stabilized on July 28. Moreover, most of the reactivated deposits still accumulated in the transportation and source areas. Thus, in August, the displacement of the landslide debris gradually accelerated in a stepwise manner, and responded strongly to rainfall, especially in the accumulation area, so that it was inferred that the damaged landslide could slide again and cause a more threatening and severe failure. The analysis results of the study area can provide references for the failure mechanism of a rainfall-induced landslide and the stability evaluation of a damaged landslide.

Abstract Barrier dam overall stability and dam break influence degree are the two risks. In order to comprehensively and quickly evaluate the risk of barrier dams, the dam height, the capacity of the barrier lake and the material composition of the dam body are selected as the stability evaluation indexes; the dam failure degree and the risk population and the potential economic loss are taken as the evaluation indexes. Based on the fuzzy hierarchy theory, this comprehensive and rapid risk assessment system of barrier dam is obtained, which is clear, intuitive and rapid, combining qualitative indexes and quantitative indexes.

In order to study the deformation mechanism of soft rock roadway in underground mines, it is necessary not only to study the influence of the dynamic disturbance caused by the cyclic mining blasting vibration on the stability of the soft rock roadway but also to study the degradation of the roadway surrounding rock itself and other factors. The paper presented a synthetic research system to investigate the factors that influence roadway rock structure deterioration in Baoguo Iron Mine. Firstly, the stability of rock mass was analyzed from the perspective of the physical and structural characteristics of the rock mass. Afterwards, according to monitoring data of mining blasting vibration, a suitable safety blasting prediction model for Baoguo Iron Mine was determined. And then, combining the results of mining blasting vibration monitoring and deformation monitoring, the effect of cyclic mining blasting on the stability of the soft rock roadway was obtained. By systematically studying the intrinsic factors of rock quality degradation and external environmental disturbances and their interactions, this paper comprehensively explores the deformation mechanism of soft rock roadway and provides the support for fundamentally solving the large deformation problems of soft rock roadway in underground mines.

Based on the fluid-solid coupling theory, we study the stability of surrounding rock mass around underground oil storage in Huangdao, Shandong province, analyze the stress of the surrounding rock mass around three chambers and the displacement change of several key monitoring points after excavation and evaluate the stability of surrounding rock mass using COMSOL Multiphysics software. Research results show that the stress at both sides of the straight wall of cavern increases, especially obvious stress concentration forms at the corners of the cavern, and the surrounding rock mass moves towards the cavern after excavation. The stress and displacement of the surrounding rock mass will increase accordingly after setting the water curtains, but the change does not have a substantive impact on the stability of surrounding rock mass.

HuJiaDi tunnel construction of Dai Gong highway is troublesome, the surrounding-rock mass give priority to full to strong weathering basalt, surrounding rock integrity is poor, weak self-stability of surrounding rock, and tunnel is prone to collapse. In order to reduce disturbance, taking advantage of the ability of rock mass, excavation adopt the method of "more steps, short footage and strong support". The excavation method using three steps excavation, The excavation footage is about 1.2 ~ 1.5 m; The surrounding rock bolting system still produce a large deformation after completion of the first support construction, it shows that the adopted support intensity cannot guarantee the stability of the tunnel engineering. Using ABAQUS to simulate tunnel excavation support, optimizing the support parameters of the tunnel, conducting comparative analysis with Monitoring and Measuring and numerical simulation results, it shows that the displacement - time curves have a certain consistency in numerical simulation of ABAQUS and Monitoring and Measuring.

Assessment of the stability of natural and artificial rock slopes is an important topic in the rock mechanics sciences. One of the most widely used methods for this purpose is the classification of the slope rock mass. In the recent decades, several rock slope classification systems are presented by many researchers. Each one of these rock mass classification systems uses different parameters and rating systems. These differences are due to the diversity of affecting parameters and the degree of influence on the rock slope stability. Another important point in rock slope stability is appraisal hazard and risk analysis. In the risk analysis, the degree of danger of rock slope instability is determined. The Lashotor pass is located in the Shiraz-Isfahan highway in Iran. Field surveys indicate that there are high potentialities of instability in the road cut slopes of the Lashotor pass. In the current paper, the stability of the rock slopes in the Lashotor pass is studied comprehensively with different classification methods. For risk analyses, we estimated dangerous area by use of the RocFall software. Furthermore, the dangers of falling rocks for the vehicles passing the Lashotor pass are estimated according to rockfall hazard rating system.

The problem about the stability of tunnel surrounding rock is always an important research object of geotechnical engineering, and the right or wrong of the result from stability analysis on surrounding rock is related to success or failure of an underground project. In order to study the deformation rules of weak surrounding rock along with lateral pressure coefficient and burying depth varying under high geostress and discuss the dynamic variation trend of surrounding rock, the paper based on the application of finite difference software of FLAC3D, which can describe large deformation character of rock mass, analog simulation analysis of surrounding rock typical section of the class II was proceeded. Some conclusions were drawn as follows: (1) when burying depth is invariable, the displacements of tunnel surrounding rock have a trend of increasing first and then decreasing along with increasing of lateral pressure coefficient. The floor heave is the most sensitive to change of lateral pressure coefficient. The horizontal convergence takes second place. The vault subsidence is feeblish to change of lateral pressure coefficient. (2) The displacements of tunnel surrounding rock have some extend increase along with increasing of burying depth. The research conclusions are very effective in analyzing the stability of surrounding rock of Yunling tunnel. These are going to be a reference to tunnel supporting design and construction.
