Lightweight structures built on expansive soils are susceptible to damage caused by soil
movement. Financial losses resulting from the improper design of structures on expansive …

Landslides pose significant risks to communities and infrastructure, and mitigating these
risks relies on understanding landslide causes and triggering processes. It has been shown …

A landslide complex in the Whitby Mudstone Formation at Hollin Hill, North Yorkshire, UK is
periodically re-activated in response to rainfall-induced pore-water pressure fluctuations …

To ensure that road and rail transport networks remain operational, both highway and
railway embankments require continual maintenance and renewal to mitigate against …

In assessing the impact of climate change on infrastructure, it is essential to consider the
interactions between the atmosphere, vegetation and the near-surface soil. This paper …

Several factors control the vulnerability of historic geostructures to climate change. These
factors are both temporally and spatially variable depending on construction techniques and …

Abstract Landslides in the Thompson River Valley, British Columbia, Canada, threaten the
serviceability of two railway lines that connect Vancouver to the rest of Canada and the US …

Instrumentation is often used to monitor the performance of engineered infrastructure slopes.
This paper looks at the current role of instrumentation and monitoring, including the reasons …

Effective management of railway infrastructure is becoming increasingly reliant upon remote
condition monitoring of geotechnical asset condition. Current monitoring approaches focus …

In situ measurements of near-saturated hydraulic conductivity in fine-grained soils have
been made at six exemplar UK transport earthwork sites: three embankment and three …
