<p>Mumbai-Pune, India&rsquo;s first expressway, which crosses the mountainous and rugged Deccan Trap Province, suffered from a large amount of rockfall and major landslides in 2003 and 2004. A significant number of accidents and fatalities have occurred on ...

This paper employs a case history to describe deployment of new TDR cable and communication technologies to monitor stability. It involves remotely monitoring possible sinkhole-induced deformation near a “land bridge” installed over a recent subsidence event. ...

In part 1 of this thesis, is developed a finite-strain theory for the joint effects of water pumping and surface loads on ground subsidence in a soil system consisting of a hard aquifer sandwiched by two soft and semipervious layers. In the second part of ...

The paper spotlights the patterns of ground subsidence in relation to landslides and related phenomena. Three fundamental mechanisms of landslides, namely: head-end interaction, tail-end interaction and the phenomenon of neighbourhood interference, are proposed ...
