Laboratory tests of the impact of stones on geotextiles and calculation model [PDF]
Laboratory tests have been performed to test the influence of stone impact on a geotextile. According to the Dutch guideline for this type of structures, the vulnerability for stone impact should be limited for non-woven geotextile with a high elongation

Cost–benefit analysis of landfill emergency securing: Two applications in Southern Italy
Abstract The systematic use of landfills as a method of waste disposal is leaving a heavy legacy in terms of environmental pollution, especially in the case of illegal or non‐compliant disposal sites. When no environmental precaution is adopted, harmful substances' release imposes relevant health risk to the surrounding population.
