Submarine landslides are critical phenomena due to their potential to reshape seabed topography, trigger tsunamis, and compromise offshore infrastructure. Understanding the rheological properties, particularly shear stress and viscosity under high shear rates, is essential for comprehending the dynamics of these landslides, a topic often underexplored in previous research. This study explores the rheological behavior of fluidized submarine landslides, with a focus on in-site sediments from the South China Sea and the Western Pacific Ocean. Samples prepared with varying densities were subjected to extensive rheological testing in the laboratory and analyzed under shear rates of up to 2000 s−1. Results indicated that all samples exhibited non-Newtonian fluid characteristics, showing shear-thinning behavior at low shear rates and shear-thickening behavior at higher shear rates. This transition is attributed to the breakdown of internal sediment structures, leading to changes in viscosity. This study also found that higher water content generally results in lower yield stress and consistency coefficients, while increasing the shear rate reduces the nonlinearity of the fluid's behavior. To model this complex behavior, a piecewise rheological model based on the Herschel-Bulkley framework was proposed. This model effectively captures the variations in rheological properties across different shear rate stages, with critical shear rates influenced by the sediment type and water content. These findings contribute to a deeper understanding of submarine landslides under extreme conditions, and the proposed model offers a more accurate tool for predicting the behavior of fluidized submarine landslides.
