Movement of Reactivated Landslides
… of ""very slow"" and ""extremely slow"" moving reactivated landslides in stiff clays and clay shales, is typically controlled by fluctuations in piezometric levels; the relations between rate of movement and piezometric levels and factor of safety (proportional to inverse of shear stress level) …

The dynamics of reactivated landslides: Utiku and Taihape, North Island, New Zealand
… causes, with reference to large, slow moving, reactivated translational rock slides. The movement of such slides has often been assumed to be uniform over time because poor temporal and spatial monitoring resolutions have not allowed the processes and mechanisms governing the velocity to be …

Movement of landslides in stiff clays and clay shales
… with estimated annual fatalities resulting from landslides near 5000 and economic losses amounting to over $15 Billion U.S. dollars. Yet, the stability of natural and man-made slopes is generally evaluated using limit equilibrium methods expressed as a ratio of resisting and driving forces …

Lime treatment to improve frictional resistance and stability of stiff clay slopes
Landslides occurring around the world are often associated with substantial damage to human life, infrastructures, and private properties, thus affecting the economy. Introducing lime, cement or other stabilizers to the potential shear zone or along the pre-existing slip surface of reactivated …

Meaning, measurement, and field application of fully softened shear strength of stiff clays and clay shales
… residual shear strength is available for the reactivated landslides. Although fully softened shear strength mobilized in first-time slope failures has been recognized for decades, a comprehensive investigation on fully softened shear strength has not been made, which consists of its meaning, …
