Rainfall-induced soil slope failures are among the most frequent and widespread landslides
in the world. The infiltration of water plays a critical role in the instability of slopes under …

Occurrence of rainfall‐induced landslides is increasing worldwide, owing to land use and
climate changes. Although the connection between hydrology and rainfall‐induced …

Desiccation cracks on a soil slope can significantly increase permeability, reduce shear
strength, and potentially result in shallow landslides. To reveal the slope failure mechanism …

Understanding water seepage in loess is important for engineering constructions and geo-
hazard prevention in loess regions. However, the saturated seepage behavior of remolded …

Cracks in a shallow slope will increase soil infiltration capacity and sequentially affect slope
stability. To further understand the evolutionary characteristics of shallow slope stability …

This paper presents some of the results and experiences in monitoring the hydraulic
response of downscaled slope models under simulated rainfall in 1 g. The downscaled …

In the alpine environment, rainfall-induced shallow landslides can involve thin covers of
colluvial soil (50–300 cm) on terraced belts that were formed as a result of fill-and-cut …

Water infiltration in loess soils is an important trigger causing landslides, in which the
hydraulic conductivity of the loess plays an important role. By analyzing a soil trench and soil …

Molding water content and compaction degree are the major factors driving differences in
the microstructure, which has a control on the permeability of compacted loess. Although the …

The seepage of remolded loess with inorganic salt solutions can deteriorate its engineering
properties. To gain insight into the mechanism responsible for changes in the permeability of …
