Landslides caused by earthquakes and other natural disasters may cause serious economic and personal losses. Slope protections\nare usually applied in engineering practice to prevent significant slope slides and damages. Based on the mechanical and ecological\nrequirements on slope protections, this paper put forward a new type of anchor + hinged block ecological slope and carried out\nshaking table tests on it and other three traditional slope protections for comparing. By shaking table tests, the acceleration\namplification factors and Fourier amplitude spectrums of four different slope types are analyzed and compared to verify the\nsuitability of this new slope protection under earthquakes. The results indicated that the natural frequency and the acceleration\nFourier amplitude spectrum of the four tested slope protections change according to internal materials. Theanchor + hinged block\necological slope has higher natural frequency comparing to traditional slopes, so the resonance cycle from earthquake excitation\ncan effectively be avoided and as a result the anchor + hinged block ecological slope can achieve better seismic performance.
