Types of disasters usually fall into two broad categories: natural and man-made. Natural disasters are generally associated with weather and geological events, includ- ing extremes of temperature, floods, hurricanes, earthquakes, tsunamis, volcanic eruptions, landslides, and drought. Naturally occurring ...
Different types of consequences and effective parameters were considered as inputs for the first fuzzy inference system. The final consequence was the preliminary result of the first inference model. It added to the probability of failures, as inputs of the second inference model. The result of ...
This leads to erosion and its consequences including landslides, floods, and other disasters. Viking Marine Services will discuss how you can reduce erosion in your yard as well as learn about professional techniques for protecting our planet from misuse of natural resources. The first thing to do...

layers. Seeding with turf grass such as fescue is a common practice for erosion control in the region but replacing this with vetiver on steep slopes may help prevent shallow landslides due to the additional root reinforcement. Additional work is needed to measure the magnitude of the strength ...
Introduction The presence of water can markedly alter the mechanical behavior of rock materials [1–7], which are responsible for a variety of geological disasters such as landslides [8], goaf collapse [9,10] and fault activation [11–13]. In many engineering applications such as tunnels, ...
