A landslide triggering experiment was carried out on a 37°- 40° steep forest slope in North-East Switzerland by sprinkling water artificially to represent an extreme rainfall event. This project is part of a multidisciplinary collaboration, which includes geotechnical engineering, hydrology, hydrogeology, forest engineering, geophysics and photogrammetry.

Abstract
A landslide triggering experiment was carried out on a 37°- 40° steep forest slope in North-East Switzerland by sprinkling water artificially to represent an extreme rainfall event. This project is part of a multidisciplinary collaboration, which includes geotechnical engineering, hydrology, hydrogeology, forest engineering, geophysics and photogrammetry. A three dimensional model of the ground was developed from non-invasive geophysical surveys, insitu probing, combined sprinkling and dye tracer tests and shallow test pits. Laboratory tests were carried out on undisturbed samples under various degrees of saturation This paper mainly focuses on the characterisation of the site.| File | Dimensione | Formato | |
