Stability monitoring of high Alpine infrastructure by terrestrial laser scanning [PDF]
, 2014 International audienceRock mass movements are dominant in the morphodynamics of high Alpine rock slopes and are at the origin of significant risks for people who attend these areas and for infrastructures that are built on (e.g. huts, cable cars).

Rock Slopes from Mechanics to Decision Making [PDF]
, 2010 http://lmrwww.epfl.ch/Eurock/Eurock2010/files/papers%20grouped.pdfRock slope instabilities are discussed in the context of decision making for risk assessment and management. Hence, the state of the slope and possible failure mechanism need to be defined

Application of Polymer Curing Agent in Ecological Protection Engineering of Weak Rock Slopes
Applied Sciences, 2019 Under the action of water, weak rock slopes easily expand and the strength and stiffness decrease, which results in slope instability. The styrene–acrylic emulsion cement-matrix composite, a new type of polymer curing agent, was developed for the ...

Soil-Rock Slope Stability Analysis under Top Loading considering the Nonuniformity of Rocks
Advances in Civil Engineering, 2020 Soil-rock slopes are widely distributed in central or western China. With the development of transportation, many subgrades are being built on mountainsides and therefore, slope stability has to be estimated under high loadings.

Motion of rock masses on slopes
Geologija, 2006 This paper shows the different ways of how rock masses (stones, rocks, and blocks) move along slopes and for each different way of motion (free fall, bouncing, rolling, sliding, slowing down, lubrication, fluidization)adequatedynamicequationsaregiven.Knowingthe kinematics and dynamics of travelling rock masses is necessary for mathematical modeling of ...
