Slope Processes, Mass Movement and Soil Erosion: A Review [PDF]
, 2017 Soil erosion and land degradation are global problems and pose major issues in many countries. Both soil erosion and mass movement are two forms of land degradation and humans play important roles in these geomorphological processes.

Vadose Zone Journal, Volume 25, Issue 1, January/February 2026.Abstract In the investigation of the relationship between measured soil suction and the rate of saturation change, an increase in response time prevents the tensiometer from instantaneously reacting to changes in suction. Solving this problem requires a tensiometer response model, which is based on the measured data from partial drainage and adsorption

The Spatial Gradation Characteristics and Intensity Evolution Law of Mine Dump
Advances in Civil Engineering, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.Most of the mine dumps have very prominent slope stability problems. In this paper, by analyzing the gradation characteristics and spatial distribution characteristics of the discharged particles, the functional relationship between the characteristic particle size parameters and the relative height of the dump was obtained.

Advances in Civil Engineering, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.Reinforced soil technology is widely applied in slope stabilization, yet the optimal configuration of reinforcement remains a key design challenge. This study presents a comprehensive investigation of vertical rib‐reinforced and inclined‐reinforced geogrid layouts through scaled physical model tests (1:10) and finite element simulations using MIDAS GTS.
