Journal: Economic Geology
Published: 01 May 1951
Economic Geology (1951) 46 (3): 329–336.
...Robert Abraham Laurence Abstract Slides in dipping Cambrian sandstone, resulting from highway relocation along Norris Reservoir, have been stabilized by the use of steel dowels and concrete anchor blocks. Geologic conditions favored this type of treatment, as sliding took place in thin shales...

Environmental & Engineering Geoscience (2016) 22 (4): 341–351.
... simulation indicated that rear blocks acted on relatively stable key blocks during long-term gravitational creep on the weak interlayer. Strength reduction of the weak interlayer was a key factor in the rockslide occurrence. Ultimately, a three-dimensional limit equilibrium method of stability analysis...

... hillslopes, including 17 rockslides, reveals distinct populations of data for stable hillslopes and rockslides, with the latter exhibiting RMS values below 69. In contrast, RMS values obtained from joint surfaces in the study area do not correlate with hillslope stability. Analysis of the seven weighted...

... and elsewhere in the world. Dangers posed by rockslides in the Alps are currently increased by establishment of settlements in hazardous areas and by possible changes in environmental factors influencing slope stability. Research budgets to support study of rockslide hazards are typically small. However...

..., rockslides and slumps cause adverse economic loss through disruption of travelling on roads. The study has the main focus on factors responsible for its instability together with stability analysis using limit equilibrium method by use of computer program Slide (version 5.0). The input parameters of rock...

...°), are congruent. To investigate the forces acting on the quarry face at the time of the rockslide, a slope stability back analysis at limit equilibrium was performed. For this purpose, a geotechnical model with a schematic reconstruction of the geometry of the sliding block, considering a planar rock slope...

... on the basement. On the other hand, it is considered that the distribution of rockslides is strongly associated with topographic stability and geological settings in the area of strong ground motion around the epicentre. To confirm the identification results ( Fig. 9 ), we performed a geological field survey...

Smooth surfaces of sheeted fresh granite encourage debris avalanches or debris slides in the overlying material. The corestone phase is characterized by unweathered granitic blocks or boulders within decomposed rock...
