History shows repeatedly that major disasters are often preceded by a series of smaller accidents, near-misses, or accident precursors. This was true in some of the most notorious accidents in recent decades. In the Challenger space-shuttle accident, engineers at NASA and its contractor, Morton ...
(2010) developed a new early-warning system for debris flow and slope-failure disasters. They used the rainfall indices of 60-min cumulative rainfall and calculated a soil–water index to set up a critical line (CL) employing a Radial Basis Function Network (RBFN). Osanai et al. (2010) ...
