Landslides: Theory, Practice and Modelling de S.P. Pradhan

Landslides: Theory, Practice and Modelling: Advances in Natural and Technological Hazards Research, cartea 50

Editat de S.P. Pradhan, V. Vishal, T.N. Singh
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 14 iul 2018
This book, with contributions from international landslide experts, presents in-depth knowledge of theories, practices, and modern numerical techniques for landslide analysis. Landslides are a reoccurring problem across the world and need to be properly studied for their mitigation and control. Due to increased natural and anthropogenic activities, chances of landslide occurrence and associated hazards have increased. The book focuses on landslide dynamics, mechanisms and processes along with hazard mitigation using geo-engineering, structural, geophysical and numerical tools.
 
The book contains a wealth of the latest information on all aspects of theory, practices and modelling tools and techniques involved in prediction, prevention, monitoring, mitigation and risk analysis of landslide hazards. This book will bring the reader up to date on the latest trends in landslide studies and will help planners, engineers, scientists and researchers working on landslide engineering.

Recenzii

“Landslides: Theory, Practice and Modelling takes an advanced, technological research approach in the field of natural hazards with an emphasis on landslides and includes theoretical, dynamical, and practical aspects. … this book is particularly useful as a guide for researchers who seek updated and rigorous scientific information about landslides, which involves geological processes and societal issues. This book also has significant potential for future research development. …it may be recognized as very thoughtful and informative for potential readers.” (Lucica Niculae, Mohamed Abioui, Jesús Martínez-Frías and Yuriy Kostyuchenko,Arabian Journal of Geosciences, Vol. 13, 2020)
