Boundary effects of rainfall-induced landslides

Computers and Geotechnics, 2014
In the study of landslides, it is generally assumed that an impermeable boundary exists at a certain depth and failure occurs at this boundary. In reality this is not always the case and failures can occur at any depth. This paper aims to study the effect of boundary conditions on landslides, using a series of seepage and stability analyses performed ...

Recurrent rainfall-induced landslides on the slopes with pyroclastic cover of Partenio Mountains (Campania, Italy): Comparison of 1999 and 2019 events

Engineering Geology, 2021
Rainfall-induced shallow landslides occurring along slopes of mountains around the city of Naples (southern Italy), characterized by pyroclastic covers laying upon fractured limestone bedrock, pose serious threat to settlements and towns located at their

Controlling parameters for rainfall-induced landslides

Computers and Geotechnics, 2002
Slope instability due to rainfall is a common geotechnical problem in tropical and subtropical areas. The numerical analysis of this problem requires the definition of various hydrological characteristics of the soil in addition to the climatic information.

Uncertainties in rainfall-induced landslide hazard

Quarterly Journal of Engineering Geology and Hydrogeology, 2002
The paper addresses the main uncertainties associated with the occurrence of rainfall induced landslides. Spatial variability of site conditions, local geology and rainfall contributes significantly to the uncertainty of landslide hazard. Urban landslide problems require the management of slopes of marginal stability.

Stability Analyses of Rainfall Induced Landslides

Journal of Geotechnical and Geoenvironmental Engineering, 2004
The slope stability issues concerning rainfall induced slope failures are investigated and presented. Specifically, the effect of both negative and positive pore water pressures on the stability of initially unsaturated slopes are carefully explained and coupled with infinite slope analysis methods in order to present a predictive formulation of slope ...

Ensemble machine learning models based on Reduced Error Pruning Tree for prediction of rainfall-induced landslides

International Journal of Digital Earth, 2020
In this paper, we developed highly accurate ensemble machine learning models integrating Reduced Error Pruning Tree (REPT) as a base classifier with the Bagging (B), Decorate (D), and Random Subspace (RSS) ensemble learning techniques for spatial ...

Briefing: Rainfall-induced landslides in Singapore

Proceedings of the Institution of Civil Engineers - Geotechnical Engineering, 2001
Minor, shallow landslides have occurred frequently on the island of Singapore. However, very few major landslides (greater than 10 m in height) have occurred. Slope failures in the sedimentary Jurong and granitic Bukit Timah formations have occurred largely on slopes with angles greater than or equal to 27°.

Modeling of Rainfall-Induced Shallow Landslides of the Flow-Type

Journal of Geotechnical and Geoenvironmental Engineering, 2010
The paper deals with the modeling of failure and postfailure stage of shallow landslides of the flow-type that often affect natural shallow deposits of colluvial, weathered, and pyroclastic origin. The failure stage is frequently associated to rainfall that directly infiltrates the slope surface and to spring from the underlying bedrock.

An integrated model for predicting rainfall-induced landslides

Geomorphology, 2009
This study proposes a novel method that combines a deterministic slope stability model and a statistical model for predicting rainfall-induced landslides. The method first uses the deterministic model to derive the rainfall rate critical to induce slope failure for each land unit.
