Research Interests
My research interest lies on the failure mechanism of rock slope and its sliding dynamic processes, which include ‘start up’ and ‘movement’ two aspects as following:
(1) Try to illustrate how a predominant structure surface (discontinuities) of dangerous rock mass forms, initiates and propagates under action of earthquake, rainfall and alpine cold based on fracture mechanics theory, and give their critical values that can result in a collapse or landslide.
(2) Study how to build a dry friction model under considering of thermo-mechanical coupling effects by using model tests, theoretical analysis and numerical simulation. Then clarify the dynamic evolution of sliding friction and the motion mechanism of high speed Landslides clearly.
