Due to the need for engineering construction, a large number of man-made slopes are
formed, which easy to induce soil erosion and shallow landslide. The root mechanical …

In this paper we outline how geomorphological understanding has underpinned forest
management in New Zealand's erodible steeplands, where it contributes to current forest …

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 …

Rainfall-induced flow landslides in coarse-grained soils pose significant threats to
populations and structures due to their high velocities, long travel distance and the absence …

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

This paper explores the possibility of improving the monotonic undrained response of a
loose clean sand which normally appears susceptible to the phenomenon of static …

Once the instability process eg erosion or landslides has been identified on a slope, the type
of vegetation to best reinforce the soil can then be determined. Plants improve slope stability …

This paper presents a model for rainfall-induced shallow landslides, revealing the failure
mechanism from initiation of instability to final flow failure. The onset of slope failure occurs …

Landslides are mainly triggered by decrease in the matric suction with deepening the
wetting band by rainfall infiltrations. This paper reports rainfall-induced landslides in partially …

Eco-engineering techniques involve the use of both plants and inert materials where, in the
latter, non-treated wood is usually present. The two different elements will both evolve with …
