The paper deals with the modeling of failure and postfailure stage of shallow landslides of
the flow-type that often affect natural shallow deposits of colluvial, weathered, and …

Flow-like mass movements in granular materials are among the most serious natural
hazards, systematically producing huge amounts of damage and numerous victims …

Climate change has increased the likelihood of the occurrence of disasters like wildfires,
floods, storms, and landslides worldwide in the last years. Weather conditions change …

Rainfall-induced shallow landslides of the flow-type involve different soils, and they often
cause huge social and economical disasters, posing threat to life and livelihood all over the …

In recent years, a number of flowslides and debris flows triggered by rainfall affected a wide
mountainous area surrounding the Piana Campana (Southern Italy). The involved slopes …

The results of laboratory infiltration experiments on instrumented model slopes are
presented. Loose granular volcanic ashes from the mountainous area north-eastern of …

The main challenge faced by scientist studying large volcanic landslides is appropriate
geomechanical characterisation of volcanic materials. Regardless of its significance …

Results deriving from a research focused on the interplay between landslides and urban
development are presented here, with reference to two densely populated settings located …

Shallow flowslides, debris flows and debris avalanches are rainfall-induced landslides
consisting in the shear failure of few metres of soils (or in some cases even less than a …
