Experimental study on the creep characteristics of sliding-zone
soil under cyclic seepage-mechanical coupling
The sliding-zone soil plays an important role in controlling the deformation evolution of landslides
making the study of its creep characteristics under seepage-mechanical coupling significant for understanding the evolution of reservoir landslides. This research focuses on the sliding-zone soil from the Majiagou landslide in the Three Gorges Reservoir area
conducting pore pressure tests and triaxial creep experiments under cyclic seepage-mechanical coupling. The study analyzes the dynamic effects of cyclic seepage pressure
the transmission and distribution of pore water pressure of sliding-zone soil samples
and the response of sliding-zone soil creep to seepage pressure under different stress levels. The results indicate that cyclic seepage pressure affects the deformation of the sliding-zone soil by influencing the transmission and dissipation of pore water pressure within the sample. As the number of cycles increases
the pore water pressure within the sample tends to stabilize and exhibits a parabolic distribution. Under the influence of cyclic seepage pressure
the sliding-zone soil exhibits "stick-slip creep" behavior; when the deviatoric stress is low
the creep of the sliding-zone soil shows significant fluctuations in response to cyclic seepage pressure. However
when the deviatoric stress exceeds 900 kPa
the response of the sliding-zone soil to seepage pressure becomes less pronounced.
