Analysis of Current Situation of Research on Shear Strength of Plant Root Soil Composite and the Influence on Slope Stability
In order to analyze the current status of research on the impact of plants on slope stability both domestically and internationally,the literature on the mechanical properties of plant roots,shear strength of root soil composites,and the impact on slope stability were reviewed.The exsiting literature explored the mechanical properties of plant roots and the shear strength characteristics of plant root soil composites,and systematically elaborated on the positive role of plant roots in improving slope stability.However,there is still room for further in-depth research on the quantitative improvement of slope stability by various mixed plant roots under the current planting modes of various herbaceous and woody plants in ecological slope protection projects,as well as the slope protection design and construction technology based on the synergy of plant slope stabilization and ecological reconstruction.
