摘要
The destabilization mechanism of rainfall-induced loess landslides generally occurring in the Ili River Valley of China remains inadequately understood. This research investigates the variations accounting for the pore water pressure and vertical stresses in the landslide body during rainfall infiltration in Karahaisu landslide, Xinyuan County, Ili River Valley, China, through physical modeling tests together with the scanning electron microscope tests. The findings indicate that rainfall significantly increases the degree of water saturation within the slope, pore water pressure and vertical stresses. This increase is more pronounced in the later stages of rainfall, followed by a sharp decrease in both pore water pressure and vertical stresses post-landslide occurrence. The results also show the dynamic fluctuations in the size and structural complexity of soil particles and pores during the rainfall infiltration. Furthermore, the soil particles undergo fragmentation as a consequence of water infiltration, leading to soil body subsidence. This tensile fracturing, attributed to differential subsidence of the slope body, constitutes the fundamental cause of accelerated deformation and damage to the slopes. The evolution of continuous rainfall-induced landslides can be categorized into three stages: crack formation caused by compression and subsidence, uniform deformation by localized slip, and eventual damage by accelerated deformation.
