Decadal in situ hydrological observations and empirical modeling of pressure head in a high-alpine, fractured calcareous rock slope [PDF]

open access: yesEarth Surface Dynamics
In peri- and paraglacial regions, water plays a critical role in the hydrological cycle and slope stability. However, hydrological models often overlook water infiltration into bedrock due to limited knowledge of groundwater dynamics at high elevations ...

Improving predictive power of physically based rainfall-induced shallow landslide models: a probabilistic approach

open access: yes, 2014
Distributed models to forecast the spatial and temporal occurrence of rainfall-induced shallow landslides are based on deterministic laws. These models extend spatially the static stability models adopted in geotechnical engineering, and adopt an ...

Estimating Arias Intensity From Response Spectrum

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Arias intensity serves as a crucial metric to measure ground motion energy and is extensively utilized in earthquake engineering to analyze structural damage, slope instability, and the potential for soil liquefaction. Nevertheless, in many practical design scenarios, only the response spectrum is available, without corresponding information ...
