Hydro-mechanical analysis of a surficial landslide triggered by artificial rainfall: the Ruedlingen field experiment

Panagiotis Sitarenios et al.

Summary: This paper interprets the hydromechanical behaviour of a steep, forested slope during an artificial rainfall event and identifies water exfiltration from bedrock fissures as the main triggering agent for slope failure.

The Geo-Hydro-Mechanical Properties of a Turbiditic Formation as Internal Factors of Slope Failure Processes

Nunzio Losacco et al.

Summary: Landslides in the Daunia Apennines are primarily caused by the presence of highly plastic clays within turbiditic flysch formations, and are influenced by internal factors such as geological structure and pore water pressure. Fractured rock layers also contribute to high permeability and significant seasonal fluctuations in pore water pressure, triggering recurrent landslide acceleration.

Forecasting the long-term deterioration of a cut slope in high-plasticity clay using a numerical model

H. Postill et al.

Summary: This paper details the development of a numerical modelling approach to forecast the long-term performance of a cut slope in high plasticity clay. It investigates the influence of construction-induced pore water pressure dissipation and seasonal weather-driven pore water pressure cycles on slope deterioration, which ultimately leads to shallow first-time progressive failure. The study demonstrates that the long-term deterioration in slope performance is governed by hydrological processes in the weathered near surface soil zone formed following slope excavation.
