Debris flows are one of the most common and frequent natural hazards in mountainous environments. For this reason, there is a need to develop monitoring systems aimed at better understanding the initiation and propagation mechanisms of these phenomen...
Slope failure, as a natural disaster, can cause extensive human suffering and financial losses worldwide. This paper introduces a new soil moisture extended cohesive damage element (SMECDE) method to predict railway slope failure under heavy rainfall...
In 2011, a M 5.7, earthquake struck near Mineral, Virginia, about 130 km southwest of Washington, D.C., prompting studies on paleoliquefaction to better understand the earthquake potential of the Central Virginia seismic zone and the hazard it poses...
This systematic literature review aims to review studies on post-wildfire landslides. A thorough search of Web of Science, Scopus, and other online library sources identified 1580 research publications from 2003 to 2024. Following PRISMA protocols, 7...
Increases in flood magnitude due to climate change increase the necessity of resilient river levees to prevent the breaching that can contribute to reduced flood inundation volume even when overtopping from a levee occurs. When a levee is composed of...
Urban development and climate change are two main impacting factors in the thermal environment of cities. This study aims to analyze future changes in Mean Radiant Temperature (MRT), one of the main contributors to human thermal comfort and the conce...
Afghanistan is located on the Eurasian tectonic plate’s edge, a highly seismically active region. It is bordered by the northern boundary of the Indian plate and influenced by the collisional Arabian plate to the south. The Hindu Kush and Pamir...
Peak Ground Acceleration (PGA) is a measure of the maximum ground shaking intensity during an earthquake. The estimation of PGA in areas affected by earthquakes is a fundamental task in seismic hazard assessment and emergency response. This paper pre...
The central Ionian Sea is one of the most seismogenic areas in the Mediterranean Sea region. In particular, the island of Lefkada, Greece, has experienced many catastrophic earthquakes. The historical seismicity of Lefkada has been revised by utilizi...
The NNW-trending Central Mindoro Fault (CMF) is an active oblique left-lateral strike-slip fault as determined from offset morphotectonic features such as spurs and streams. Mapping of the trace and determination of the sinistral strike-slip sense of...
