Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Landslides in sensitive clays represent a major hazard in the northern countries of the world such as Canada, Finland, Norway, Russia, Sweden and in the US state of Alaska. Past and recent examples of catastrophic landslides at e.g. Saint-Jean-Vianney in 1971, Rissa in 1979, Finneidfjord in 1996 and Kattmarka in 2009 have illustrated the great mobility of the remolded sensitive clays and their hazardous retrogressive potential. These events call for a better understanding of landslide in sensitive clay terrain to assist authorities with state-of-the-art hazard assessment methods, risk management schemes, mitigation measures and planning. During the last decades the elevated awareness regarding slope movement in sensitive clays has led to major advances in mapping techniques and development of highly sophisticated geotechnical and geophysical investigation tools. Great advances in numerical techniques dealing with progressive failure and landslide kinematic have also lead to increase understanding and predictability of landslides in sensitive clays and their consequences. This volume consists of the latest scientific research by international experts dealing with geological, geotechnical and geophysical aspects of slope failure in sensitive clays and focuses on understanding the full spectrum of challenges presented by landslides in such brittle materials.…

Buch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - Landslides are a major geohazard and a threat to communities and infrastructure worldwide. As climate change impacts intensify, a good understanding of the triggering factors and slope instability mechanisms is vital in order to assess and mitigate the risk. This comprehensive guide delves into slope failure and post-failure landslide mechanisms - knowledge that can save lives and protect communities globally.Structured in two complementary parts, this authoritative volume first builds a solid theoretical foundation before bringing concepts to life through several well-documented examples. Part I explores the fundamental soil properties with specific concern to slopes, uncovers the often-complex mechanisms of slope failure and examines the crucial individual factors that control slope movements. This section therefore provides the essential theoretical framework for understanding these destructive natural phenomena. Part II reports 28 well-documented case histories presented by renowned experts from all over the world. These compelling case studies, which illuminate typical and less common phenomena of slope deformation and failure, transform abstract concepts into practical insights.Whether you are a researcher pushing the boundaries of geotechnical knowledge, a practitioner implementing slope stability solutions, or a graduate student in soil engineering or geohazards, this book delivers invaluable knowledge directly applicable to your work. Civil engineers and geologists will also find this accessible volume an essential addition to their professional library.…

Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. Slope instability is a major problem in many parts of the world. It has affected both the safety of people and that of constructions such as buildings, roads, dams, etc. In order to prevent, assess consequences or mitigate landslides, a good understanding of the process happening is vital. This reference book gives a full and well-illustrated treat of the mechanisms leading to slope movements and landslides. Composed of two parts, both the theoretical and the practical part are discussed; the first part describes soil behaviour and properties in the context of slopes, the processes involved in slope formation and how some factors influence slope movements and stability. The second part consists of about 30 well-documented case histories from many parts of the world that were carefully selected and written by experts to demonstrate the most common processes of deformation and failure. This book is unique in that it typically treats the mechanical processes involved. Intended for researchers, practitioners and graduate students working on soil engineering and geohazards but also attractive reading for a broader audience of civil engineers and geologists. This comprehensive guide delves into slope failure and post-failure landslide mechanisms knowledge that can save lives and protect communities globally. Structured in two complementary parts, this authoritative volume first builds a solid theoretical foundation before bringing concepts to life through several well documented examples.
