Abstract

In many mountainous areas of China, frequent geological disasters pose a serious threat to human life and property. The Luding “9.5” earthquake triggered a large number of landslide disasters, causing serious loss of life and property. Therefore, it is extremely urgent to carry out research on the stability analysis and treatment methods of landslides in the Luding area. In this paper, the Caiyangba landslide in Yanzigou Town, Luding County, is taken as the research object. The slope model is constructed by Midas to study the stability development law of Caiyangba landslide under different rainfall conditions and seismic conditions, and to explore the feasibility of the “anchor lattice treatment method”. The results show that the “anchor lattice treatment method” can effectively improve the stability of the slope under rainfall conditions. The improvement effect of slope stability decreases with the increase in rainfall duration and rainfall. The development law of the slope stability coefficient with rainfall duration in WMG (the working condition of not adopting the “anchor lattice treatment method” is referred to as WMG) and MG (the working condition of adopting the “anchor lattice treatment method” is referred to as MG) conditions conform to the development law of exponential function, and the expression of instantaneous change rate of slope stability coefficient is derived. The above function can also well explain the development law of X-direction displacement and Y-direction displacement of SP (school: monitoring point) and RP (road: monitoring point); the development law of the instantaneous change rate of displacement. Under the influence of ground motion, the improvement effect of the “anchor lattice treatment method” on the slope stability coefficient is limited, but the improvement effect of slope stability increases with the increase in seismic intensity. The slope stability coefficient and the displacement of SP and RP show obvious fluctuation with time, and the fluctuation law is similar to that of ground motion records. It is recommended to add a gravity-retaining wall at the foot of the slope. The teaching building reduces the number of floors and increases the number of pile foundations. Roads should restrict the passage of heavy vehicles, such as cars and strictly stacked items. The above results can provide a theoretical reference for the sustainable treatment and sustainable development of landslides in the Luding area.
