Landslides and Engineered Slopes: From the Past to the Future

'Landslides and Engineered Slopes. From Past to the Future' contains over 270 papers from international experts presented at the Tenth International Symposium on Landslides, (Xi'an, China, from 30 June 30-4 July 2008), which symposium was jointly organized by CISMGE-CCES, CNCEG, CSRME and the Geotechnical Division of the Hong Kong Institution of Engineers. The contributions cover all aspects of landslide hazards, encompassing geological modeling and soil and rock mechanics, landslide processes, causes and effects, and damage avoidance and limitation strategies. This set is intended for academics and professionals in geo-mechanical and geo-technical engineering, and provides a valuable source of reference for those involved in research, design, construction and education related to high natural landslides and artificial engineering slopes.Chen, Zu-Yu is the author of 'Landslides and Engineered Slopes: From the Past to the Future', published 2008 under ISBN 9780415411967 and ISBN 0415411963.
