Abstract

A dump is a loose accumulation of solid waste from mining operations that easily leads to disasters such as landslides and debris flows. Taking a dump in the Panzhihua region of China as an example, based on the MPM and SPH meshless methods, the dynamic calculation of the instability process of the spoil slope was carried out according to the realistic three-dimensional calculation model of the generated terrain. Firstly, the strain and displacement of the dump under normal conditions and heavy rainfall conditions were simulated by the MPM material point method. The maximum spatial displacement of the dump under heavy rainfall conditions reached up to 386 m. Then, the motion and morphology of the accumulation of the dump under ordinary working conditions and heavy rainfall conditions were analyzed using the smooth particle hydrodynamics (SPH) method. Under heavy rainfall conditions, the maximum horizontal displacement of the dump was approximately 394 m. The research results are conducive to the risk assessment of the spoil slope and provide theoretical support for the calculation of the range of potential threats from the dump.
