Stress redistribution following landslides: Insights from 3D stress modelling of mountain topography
Earth Surface Processes and Landforms, Volume 51, Issue 7, July 2026.We present a novel numerical workflow adapting the Finite Cell Method directly to digital elevation models to simulate near‐surface stress fields. The models demonstrate that topographic unloading via slope failure dramatically reduces localized peak shear stresses but actively redistributes elastic loads onto adjacent slopes, driving progressive ...
