... Abstract In recent years, localized torrential rainfall caused by abnormal weather happens frequently, which triggers numerous sediment disasters accompanied with slope failure. Generally, slope stability analysis is performed, considering the parameters of the soil layers as homogeneous...

... m3 are more frequent in the periods including freeze-thaw episods. For rockfalls bigger than 0.1 m3, the rockfall frequency is respectively 4 times and 3 times higher during rainfall episodes and freeze-thaw episodes, than during periods without rainfall or freeze-thaw. These results could contribute...

... (deformation, rainfall, pore pressure). There is enough evidence to support the interpretation of this slow movement as a continuing shear deformation along clay-rich interbeds. Most of the sliding surface can be considered in residual strength conditions. In the second part of the paper, some hydro-mechanical...

Another problem is that a large number of the paper based inspection results have not always been used effectively in decision-making process for maintenance and/or repair of road slopes. Furthermore, considering recent increase of local torrential rainfall...

...-Shiraito failure occurred in August 1997 on a scale of 56,000m 3 . Accumulated rainfall over the three weeks prior to the failure reached 290mm. Geologically, heavily altered strata, distributed in dip slopes at the lower part of collapsed rock masses, were in wet conditions under which groundwater...

... dipole-dipole electric resistivity technique, we tried to monitor the groundwater flow behaviour during rainfall in a rock slope site. The interesting resistivity change which was continuously measured at this site is reported, and the relationship between the resistivity change rate and the rainfall...
