Under the effect of long-term periodic fluctuation of reservoir water level, reservoir landslide
deforms continuously and the mechanical strength of slip zone varies accordingly, resulting …

The results of an analysis concerning a landslide occurred in Calabria (Southern Italy) in
2014 are presented. This landslide was triggered by some excavations carried out at the …

The extremely strong Wenchuan earthquake triggered thousands of landslides in Sichuan
Province, China. Flow-like landslides, such as the Tangjiashan, Wangjiayan, and …

Traditional numerical methods such as the finite element method are usually used to
analyse the slope response in the pre-failure and failure stages under the assumption of …

Accurate assessment of slope stability is the most important task in geological disaster
prevention and control. This study developed an ensemble learning approach based on …

Modelling of landslides in sensitive clays has long been recognised as a challenge. The
strength reduction of sensitive clays when undergoing plastic deformation makes the failure …

One of the factors causing the acceleration of landslides is the loss of strength of the soil
involved in the potential unstable mechanism. The travelled distance and the landslide …

This paper presents a kinematic study of the Portalet landslide (Sallent de Gállego, Central
Spanish Pyrenees), which was triggered by the construction of a big parking area at the toe …

Displacement piles are driven to support a wide range of structures. Predicting their axial
limiting capacities and load-displacement behavior is critical to many such engineering …

The influence of the stress regime change and associated softening can be significant on
unsaturated expansive soil slope stability due to soil swelling upon wetting, which cannot be …
