, 2018 When excluding floods, it is primarily slope stability issues such as landslides and avalanches, which count for the main geohazards in Norway. Till is the dominant Quaternary sediment, where the till deposits mostly originate from local rocks with a transport distance less than five kilometres.

Fuzzy set concept in structural geology: Example of ductile simple shear
Journal of Earth System Science, 2021 Much of the time, geological data are not accurately known. Instead, geoscientists work with a range of possible data. These data can have a range since they can vary spatially and temporally. In this context, we demonstrate how a well-established structural geological model of velocity profile of ductile simple shear, expressed as an equation, can be ...

Back analysis of inter-ramp slope failure in Teghout copper mine [PDF]
International Journal of Mining and Geo-Engineering, 2018 Slope stability is one of the most important issues in open pit mining design. The main purpose of any open pit mine design is to propose an optimal excavation configuration, considering safety, ore recovery and financial return.
