The response characteristics and stability evaluation of vegetated slope under strong wind.

ABSTRACT: As one of the major geological disasters in southeastern China, typhoon-induced vegetation slope instability causes significant loss of life and property each year. Despite the criticality of this issue, the response mechanism of vegetated slopes to wind loading in terms of soil deformation and stability still remains unclear. This research conducted field investigations on 330 historical landslides in Yongjia County, Zhejiang Province, analyzing their spatiotemporal distribution and developmental characteristics to establish a conceptual model. The influence of wind and vegetation conditions on slope dynamic parameters and soil strength parameters were subsequently determined through numerical simulations using FLAC3D software, model tests, and direct shear tests. The results show that: (
