Abstract

Loess sinkholes are one of the common diseases on loess slopes. To study the influence of loess sinkholes on the stability of loess slopes under rainfall conditions, indoor artificial rainfall simulation tests were carried out based on the rainfall similarity criterion. The corresponding laws of the influence of loess sinkholes on the rainfall infiltration of slopes and the impact on slope deformation were analyzed. The ABAQUS software was used to analyze the displacement development and stability of loess slopes with and without loess sinkholes under the same rainfall conditions.
