Microtremor response of a mass movement in Federal District of Brazil [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The present study provides a brief description of the ambient noise recorded at a slow moving mass movement in Ribeirão Contagem Basin. The area is an interesting natural laboratory as river detachment processes in a number of different stages can be ...

Research on Fault Activation and Its Influencing Factors on the Barrier Effect of Rock Mass Movement Induced by Mining

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2023
For the study of the driving forces behind fault activation and its influencing factors on the barrier effect of rock mass movement under the influence of mining, the discrete element numerical simulation software 3DEC was used for the analysis of the ...

Could road constructions be more hazardous than an earthquake in terms of mass movement?

open access: yesNatural Hazards, 2022
Roads can have a significant impact on the frequency of mass wasting events in mountainous areas. However, characterizing the extent and pervasiveness of mass movements over time has rarely been documented due to limitations in available data sources to ...

Differences in the occurrence of debris flows in tropical and temperate environments: field observations and geomorphologic characteristics in Serra do Mar (Brazil) and British Columbia (Canada)

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Geology, 2022
Debris flows are among the most destructive types of mass movements throughout the world and are not restricted to certain climate zones or geological environments. In opposite corners of the American continent, Canada and Brazil have experienced several

Numerical Simulation of the 2017 Xinmo Catastrophic Landslide Considering Entrainment Effect

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2020
The mass movement process of the 2017 Xinmo catastrophic landslide was simulated using the discreet element method (DEM). Field investigation indicates that the basal entrainment is a typical feature of this landslide.
