Flow-like landslides, such as debris flows and rock avalanches, travel at extremely rapid
velocities and can impact large areas far from their source. When hazards like these are …

Rapid mass movements (RMM) pose a substantial risk to people and infrastructure. Reliable
and cost-efficient measures have to be taken to reduce this risk. One of these measures …

In this paper, we describe the investigations and actions taken to reduce risk and prevent
casualties from a catastrophic 210,000 m 3 rockslope failure, which occurred near the …

The international journal Landslides was initiated in April 2004. It is the core project (IPL-
C100) of the International Programme on Landslides, a joint initiative of the International …

We analyse the ambient vibration response of Alpe di Roscioro (AdR), an incipient rock
slope failure located above the village Preonzo in southern Switzerland. Following a major …

Rainfall induced landslides are a common threat to the communities living on dangerous hill-
slopes in Chittagong Metropolitan Area, Bangladesh. Extreme population pressure …

Warning systems are increasingly applied to reduce damage caused by different
magnitudes of rockslides and rockfalls. In an integrated risk-management approach, the …

On December 28, 2002 a landslide occurred on the eastern flank of Mt. Beni (Florence,
Italy), on a slope where jointed basalts and ophiolitic breccias overlie Mesozoic limestones …

Large catastrophic rock slope failures are difficult to predict because the underlying
mechanisms causing slope accelerations are difficult to study under in-situ conditions. For …

Reliable monitoring of unstable rock slopes is a prerequisite for successful mitigation of
landslide hazards. However, most state‐of‐the art techniques rely on measuring the local …
