<p>Flysch formations are generally characterised by evident heterogeneity in the presence of low strength and tectonically disturbed structures. The complexity of these geological materials demands a more specialized geoengineering characterisation. <br />In ...

Landslide Brus was occurred in April 2005, near Brus village in Istria, Croatia. Landslide is typical block sliding and landslide body consists of practically unique flysch rock mass block, 150 m long and 35 m wide. Sliding was occurred momentary, without ...

In the present investigation, the safety of the northern slope of Delphi‟s archaeological site in Greece was investigated against rockfalls. The area consists of limestone lying over flysch. Threepossible rockfall rebound tracks, passing through the ancient ...

The paper presents geological and engineering geological characteristics of the flysch in outlined area which is expected to have a lot of similarities with very well defined and investigated flysch deposits in Split.The investigated area belongs to the ...

This paper presents a methodology for estimating the properties of heterogenous rock masses such as flysch.

In tunnelling through heterogeneous rock masses, such as the flysch, it is important to attempt to obtain reliable estimates of potential tunnelling problems as early as possible. This enables the tunnel designer to focus on the selection of optimum routes ...

The 570 m long Tarifa Experimental Gallery has allowed the investigation of three of the five flysch units involved in the future tunnel of Gibraltar. This Tunnel will have a length of 38 km approximately and will cross the Strait. For this reason, the results ...
