Earthquake-Induced Landslides: Initiation and Run-Out Analysis by Considering Vertical Seismic Loading, Tension Failure and the Trampoline Effect

by Yingbin Zhang and zhang

This book sheds new light on improved methods for the study of the initiation and run-out of earthquake-induced landslides. It includes an initiation study method that considers tension-shear failure mechanism; an improved, rigorous, dynamic sliding-block method based on dynamic critical acceleration; and a run-out analysis of earthquake-induced landslides that takes account of the trampoline effect, all of which add to the accuracy and accessibility...
