Bank collapse-landslide failure mechanism of typical reverse rock bank slope in Three Gorges Reservoir area by Yang LI, Hailin ZHAO, Bolin HUANG, Honglin LI, Kaikai XU

“…To further analyze the failure mechanism and disaster process of bank collapse-landslide under the constraint condition of bank collapse, this study constructed a two-dimensional model of Gongjiafang landslide in Wuxia section of Three Gorges Reservoir area to analyze the failure mechanism of bank collapse-landslide of typical reverse rock bank slope under the erosion of reservoir water level. The results show that in the process of landslide instability evolution, the bank collapse changes the slope shape, slope structure, and stress distribution. …”
