  This study investigates the geotechnical factors influencing a recent landslide event in Gera Woreda, Ethiopia. The primary objective was to identify the soil properties contributing to landslide occurrence and understand the triggering mechanisms. Field investigations, soil sampling from both affected and unaffected areas, and subsequent laboratory characterization were conducted. The analysis revealed a dominance of fine-grained...

• Stability analysis of a road scarp in the Carpathian Mountains and methods of its protection

  Publication

  - Year 2018

  The purpose of the study was to analyse the stability of a road scarp endangered by a landslide and to consider some measures for its stabilization. The potential landslide could unfavourably alter the shape of the slope, thus a religious sanctuary situated above the slope. The present research has resulted in suggestions of possible protection methods, namely, drainage, soil nailing, installation of piles, supporting the scarp...

• Influence of geotechnical conditions on damage states of Gdansk Bay Coast cliff formations

  - Polish Maritime Research - Year 2018

  A geotechnical aspect of destruction processes of seashores was identified based on the case of erosion of Gdansk Bay Coast cliff formations. Causative factors of landslide were described in the context of natural phenomena, land development and its anthropogenic transformations. Possible directions of theoretical analysis of changes in groundwater relations were indicated.

  Transportation systems are designed and used so as to effectively and safely relocate people, goods and services. Despite this there are numerous hazards that disrupt or damage these systems. Risks such as extreme weather conditions, terrorist threats, landsliders or earthquakes are difficult to predict, manage and mitigate. One of the hazards for transportation systems are accidents, and their impact on the transport functioning...

  Artykuł dotyczy miasta San Leo, znanego z atrakcyjnych zabytków historycznych, zwłaszcza twierdzy Rocca Fortezza stanowiącej architektoniczne arcydzieło. Jest ona położona na wysokiej skale, której zbocza od setek lat ulegały procesom osuwiskowym. Najpoważniejsze osuwisko miało miejsce w 2014. Aby uniknąć potencjalnej katastrofy i zapewnić bezpieczeństwo miastu, w pracy przeprowadzono analizę proaktywną, polegającą na przewidywaniu...

  As a part of an experiment, cliff in Gdynia Redlowo (southern coast of Baltic Sea, Gdansk Bay) was measured using terrestrial laser scanner. The main reason for taking up the subject of the Orlowo Cliff’s stability was a decision about controlled removal one of the war fortification elements. The main purpose of that analysis was to specify suitability of laser scanning in determination of slope’s stability after a violent event....
