Engineering geology, geotechnics and hydrogeology in environmental management: Northern Italian experiences

2017
The area considered belongs to northern Italy and corresponds to the Northern Apennine and Po Plain sectors included within the administrative district of Modena. In this area the width of the Apennine chain from crest to plain is about 45 km, with altitudes ranging from 2,000 m above sea level along the main watershed to 150 m at the foot of the hills.

Engineering geology and the reduction of geotechnical risk: challenges facing the profession in Hong Kong

Quarterly Journal of Engineering Geology and Hydrogeology, 2009
Abstract There has been considerable discussion on the role of engineering geologists in reducing geotechnical risk both internationally and in Hong Kong. This paper discusses the problems facing the engineering geological profession by examining the current approach to natural landslide assessments in Hong Kong.

Application of Probabilistic Approaches In Geotechnical Engineering and Engineering Geology

1994
Typical geotechnical and engineering geology problems such as performance prediction of jointed rock slopes, tunnel cost and time prediction and landslide assessment and mitigation are used to illustrate the effect of uncertainties and how to handle them with probabilistic methods.

Earthquake Surface Rupture: A Brief Survey on Interdisciplinary Research and Practice from Geology to Geotechnical Engineering

Rock Mechanics and Rock Engineering, 2019
Coseismic surface ruptures during desctructive earthquakes (1999 Kocaeli–Duzce, Turkey and 1999 Chi-Chi, Taiwan) have caused devastating effects on buildings and infrastructures. Surface rupture remains a complicated phenomenon involving variable movements along near surface traces of both primary and secondary faults.

THE CONTRIBUTION PROVIDED BY GEOLOGY AND GEOTECHNICAL ENGINEERING IN THE RESTORATION OF TERRACES ON AMALFI COAST

2021
The paper deals with the geomorphological, stratigraphic, geotechnical and stability characteristics of the terraced slopes in the Amalfi-Ravello area (23 km2); the main aim is to evaluate the safety factors of the terrace – dry masonry wall system and to identify the main causes which could cause the collapse.

The subsoil model for seismic microzonation study: the interplay between geology, geophysics and geotechnical engineering

2019
The development of a reliable subsoil model is crucial to optimize the results of the advanced (3 level) seismic microzonation. The definition of the model needs the contribution of distinct scientific skills (geologists, geophysicists, geotechnical engineers), that should interact, during the entire zonation process, to solve and reduce the complexity

Luhuatai in the Yinchuan Basin for the 1: 50 000 Map: Dataset from Engineering Geology Boreholes, Samples and Geotechnical Tests

Acta of Geoscientific Data & Discovery, 2018
This dataset contains 1,996 sets of test data, obtained from 293 rock and soil samples collected from 14 engineering boreholes drilled in Luhuatai, Yinchuan Basin, in 2016. The test items include the shear strength, modulus of compressibility and grain composition of the soil mass. The exposed strata in Luhuatai is predominantly Quaternary.
