Mechanism of the Donghekou landslide triggered by the 2008 Wenchuan earthquake revealed by discrete element modeling
The huge Donghekou landslide was triggered by the Wenchuan earthquake in 2008 with about 2.4 × 10<sup>7</sup> m<sup>3</sup> of rock displaced. The landslide is considered as an example of an earthquake-induced "ejection" event, where dislocated slope materials was e...
