Flow-like mass movements are catastrophic events occurring all over the world and may result in a great number of casualties and widespread damages. The analysis of the time-space evolution of the kinematic quantities is ...

Pyroclastic soils are widely diffused all over the world and they are characterized by high porosity and an open metastable internal structure. In situ they usually cover the shallowest layers of slopes in unsaturated ...

Weather induced landslides cause a large number of casualties as well as severe economic losses worldwide every year. Such a diffuse risk cannot be mitigated only by means of structural works, typically characterized ...

Large deformation analysis has become recently centre of attraction in geotechnical design. It is used to predict geotechnical boundary value problems such as, excessive movement of soil masses like landslides ...
