Micropile groups (MPGs), combined with the advantages of anti-slip pile and anchor cable, offer an efficient support system that can be used as countermeasures for stabilizing talus slopes. However, performance MPGs in slopes is rarely numerically investigated from continuous-discontinuous viewpoints. To fulfil this knowledge gap, a numerical method coupled discrete element (DEM) finite (FEM) p...

Natural gas pipeline projects in mountainous areas are inevitably affected by geological disasters such as landslides, which pose a serious threat to the safe operation of pipelines along routes crossing landslide areas. In this paper, based on pipe-landslide project area southwest China, interaction mechanism and failure evolution process landslide-pipeline system reinforced two kinds micropil...
