Abstract:The pronounced discrepancies in triggering intensities and failure modes observed in downhill progressive landslides pose significant challenges to their risk prediction and mitigation. Instead of focusing on an individual triggering event and/or failure mode as done in previous studies, this study systematically explores the instability issues of downhill progressive failure in long slopes. A unified analytical model is proposed to understand these observed discrepancies, in which criteria for the initiation … Show more
