Abstract: The presence of surface cracks has a great influence on the formation of transient saturated zones, which are one of the main factors affecting the stability of colluvial soil slopes during rainfall. This paper aims… read more here.

Abstract: Rainfall, as one of the most significant factors triggering the residual soil slope failure, leads to not only the reduction of soil shear strength, but also the increase of soil weight and the decrease of… read more here.
