This paper presents a geomechanical model that was developed to investigate the behaviour of a natural slope located on the bank of the Rhine between the towns of Stein and Mumpf in Switzerland. The slope, affected by a large landslide, constitutes a relev ...

In order to define the safety conditions and the sustainable development of the large Triesenberg landslide (5 km(2)), the Principality of Liechtenstein has undertaken a modelling research to determine both the critical hydraulic heads and the potential influence of climate changes. The main objectives of this research focused on critical groundwater levels and related movements, in order to supply significant mid and long-term information for land planning. First a geological model was built to define the

A coupled hydro-mechanical formulation is presented for the analysis of landslide motion during crisis episodes. The mathematical formulation is used to model a natural slope affected by a multiple slip surface failure mechanism, in which pore water pressu ...

Using advanced hydrogeological and geomechanical finite element modelling, it has been possible to model the mechanical behaviour of a large slope movement, the Triesenberg landslide. This slope is located along the Rhine valley in the Principality of Liec ...

A geomechanical model was developed to analyse the behaviour of a natural slope located on the bank of the Rhine River between the towns of Stein and Mumpf in Switzerland. The slope is affected by a landslide and three strategic infrastructure assets are l ...

Connaissance de l’environnement n° 1023, 123 p., 2010.

Landslides as secondary seismic effects are causing some patterns of soil failure that are often considered among the most destructive ones. In fact, the impact from triggered landslides has sometimes exceeded damage directly related to strong shaking and ...

The consideration of predicted climate change conditions in the hydrogeological and geomechanical modelling of a large landslide allows the assessment of its future behaviour in case of crisis. This application shows that the predictions are not necessaril ...

Using advanced hydro-geological and geo-mechanical finite element simulations, it has been possible to model the behavior of a large slope movement, namely the La Frasse landslide in Switzerland. The slide experiences a permanent movement of about 10 to 15 ...

The incidence of disasters around the world and the role of the United Nations International Strategy for Disaster Reduction (UNISDR) in relation to reducing vulnerability are reviewed, with reference to the relationship between climate change and landslid ...
