Landslides are a widely recognized phenomenon, causing huge economic and human
losses worldwide. The detection of spatial and temporal landslide deformation, together with …

Transportation infrastructure in mountainous terrain and through river valleys is exposed to a
variety of landslide phenomena. This is particularly the case for highway and railway …

Rockfall is one of the main phenomena in mountainous environments due to its fast and
high speed of movement, its unpredictability, and, therefore, the difficulty of identifying signs …

Rockfall inventories are essential to quantify a rockfall activity and characterize the hazard.
Terrestrial laser scanning and advancements in processing algorithms have resulted in …

Slope instabilities adjacent to transportation corridors require timely and precise assessment
to determine the risk to road users, particularly when weather changes trigger these …

Rockfalls commonly exhibit power law volume‐frequency distributions, where fewer large
events are observed relative to more numerous small events. Within most inventories, the …

Rockfall events represent significant hazards for areas characterized by high and steep
slopes and therefore effective mitigation controls are essential to control their effect. There …

Rockfalls are a recurrent cause of disruption for transportation corridors running along the
bottom of U-shaped alpine valleys. In some scenarios, risk may effectively be reduced only …

Nowadays the use of remote monitoring sensors is a standard practice in landslide
characterization and monitoring. In the last decades, technologies such as LiDAR, terrestrial …

Local topography and structural features of discontinuities have a great effect on the
movement characteristics and failure mechanisms of the unstable rock blocks of the rock …
