To assess the seismic performance of slopes, the simplified displacement-based methods
represent a good-working balance between simplicity and reliability. The so-called …

The simplified displacement-based procedures for seismic slope stability represent a good-
working balance between simplicity and reliability, since both slope ductility (ie the capacity …

Seismic performance of slopes can be assessed through displacement-based procedures
where earthquake-induced displacements are usually computed following Newmark-type …

The response of slopes to earthquake loading may be studied via effective stress dynamic
analyses, displacement-based sliding block analyses, or through force-based pseudo-static …

Seismically induced landslides can often cause severe human and economic losses.
Therefore, it is worth assessing the seismic performance of slopes through a reliable …

The paper reports a comparison among three methods of increasing complexity to estimate
the seismic displacements of natural slopes:(1) a simplified method, based on the statistical …

The behaviour of earth slopes under seismic conditions can be effectively studied by
evaluating the suffered displacements, which are key parameters in the recent performance …

The design procedures to evaluate earthquake-induced sliding displacements typically refer
to three different approaches: simplified methods; displacements methods and advanced …

Earthquake-induced slope instability is one of the most important hazards related to ground
shaking, causing damages to the environment and, often, casualties. Therefore, it is …
