rockfall protective measureshigh and steep slope of Jiangping River Hydropower StationThe high and steep rock slopes behind the workshops of the Jiangping River Hydropower Station have developed joints and fissures,and a nearly vertical free surface angle,and are thus likely to pose rockfall hazards,...
The Old River Control Structure, located on a stretch of the Mississippi River near a location known as Point Breeze, is the single most interesting spot along the entire Great River. In most cases, geological changes take place on a geological timescale. But at this location, a battle rages...
The ruins of Machu Picchu are perched on top of a steep ridge in the most inaccessible corner of the most inaccessible section of the central Andes. No part of the highlands of Peru has been better defended by natural bulwarks—a stupendous canyon whose rim is more than a mile above the...
Sometimes the slope will be more gradual than your other boundaries (if your natural river was in a canyon with steep walls). In other cases, the dams are obviously steeper than the sides of the original river valley. Either way, natural river banks are pretty variable. They may have layer...
Quantifying patterns and rates of fluvial erosion into bedrock are essential for understanding linkages between rock strength/ structure and discharge, and their influence on landscape evolution12. The upstream propagation of steepened reaches in bedrock rivers (that is, knickpoints) is one of the ...
The steep slope along the river Rhine between the German villages of Lorch and Assmannshausen is called the Teufelskadrich. The railway line of German fede... C Wendeler,E Gr?Ner,J Matthesius - 《Geomechanik Und Tunnelbau》 被引量: 1发表: 2012年 加载更多研究...
The study area, approximately 160km2surrounding Lois River, is located approximately 54km Northeast of Powell River, British Columbia. This area consists of mountainous terrain characterized by steep slopes with the highest peak reaching 1886m above sea level. The landscape features many small alpine ...
the spatial distribution of landslide events is not considered when planning these projects. For instance, the road network is built on steep slopes with large loads on slope aspects. These spatial interpretations are consistent with Jamir et al. (2022), Das et al. (2022) and Yamusa et al....
The relatively steep slope is conducive to forming gravity flows during higher river discharge and transport fine sediment to the deeper part of the CSD and also causing localized erosion on the seabed30. Meanwhile, even on gentle slope, wave- or current-induced velocity shear could keep sediment...
7e). Other winters are dominated by more northerly, or “steep” winter waves, which will cause the beach to be narrower in the north and wider in the south (Fig. 7f). Both of these post-event scenarios are hypothesized to transport littoral sediment around the southern headland, resulting...
