Assessment of physical vulnerability and potential losses of buildings due to shallow slides

Silva, M.; Pereira, S. - In: Natural Hazards 72 (2014) 2, pp. 1029-1050

Physical vulnerability (PV) of buildings and associated potential losses (PLs) due to the occurrence of shallow slides … four main purposes: (1) to identify and characterize the built environment exposed to shallow slides in the study area; (2 … shallow translational slides combines the LM and the BR, which is empirically obtained weighting a set of parameters related …

Surface breaks along the coastal plain of Cirò (Ionian Calabria, southern Italy): geophysical and paleoseismological insights

Galli, Paolo; Piscitelli, Sabatino - In: Natural Hazards 71 (2014) 1, pp. 291-313

On July 28, 2004, the coastal plain of Cirò (Calabria, Ionian Sea) was interested by the sudden opening of a ~5-km-long fracture, paralleling the coastline. All the buildings, roads, and pipelines crossed by the fracture were damaged, inducing several inhabitants to abandon their houses. The...

Diffusers, potential slides, and surmountability

Eliazar, Iddo; Klafter, Joseph - In: Physica A: Statistical Mechanics and its Applications 361 (2006) 2, pp. 373-393

A diffuser traversing an infinitely steep ‘potential slide’ might never overcome it. In such cases, the notion of First Passage Time—‘how long would it take till the diffuser surmounts the slide?’—is inadequate. Rather, the notion of relevance is that of Peak Height—‘how high-up...

Validation of Landslide Susceptibility Maps; Examples and Applications from a Case Study in Northern Spain

Remondo, Juan; González, Alberto; Terán, José De; … - In: Natural Hazards 30 (2003) 3, pp. 437-449

A procedure for validating landslide susceptibility maps wasapplied in a study area in northern Spain and the results obtained compared. Validationwas used to carry out sensitivity analysis for individual variables and combinationsof variables. The validity of different map-making methods was...
