A framework for landslide risk management for landslides and slopes is presented. A review
of criteria for acceptable individual and societal risk is presented, and suggestions made for …

Probabilistic methods are potentially useful in four stages of a typical project: site
characterization and evaluation, evaluation of designs, decision making, and construction …

Rock falls can cause delays, damage, injury, and death to highway users. In 1982, a rock fell
on a vehicle in the Argillite Cut on British Columbia (BC) Highway 99 killing a woman and …

This paper describes an empirical method, called Rockfall Risk Assessment for Quarries
(ROFRAQ), which assesses the risk associated with rockfalls in quarries. The method is …

Errors in estimating the risks from landslides can be regarded as the sums of errors in
estimating the elements at risk, in particular landslide hazards, vulnerability of those …

Slopes pose a potential hazard to urban development. The risk analysis of the probability of
fatality occurrence (or probability of loss of life) resulting from natural landslide or rockfall is …

This paper aims to assess the instability hazard of a granite boulder. The procedure was first
to consider the geological setting and geomorphologic features of the boulder in relation to …

Résumé Cet article présente une évaluation quantitative des risques d'accidents provoqués
par des mouvements de terrain, le long de l'autoroute A3 (Napoli–Salerno). En particulier …

Railways have three basic options for managing their exposure to geotechnical hazards:
reduce the source of the hazards, spatially avoid the hazards, or reduce the temporal …

This thesis reviews computer simulation of rockfalls in general and an attempt has been
made to analyse and predict rockfalls at Fox Glacier, West Coast, New Zealand, using …
