Landslides and Slope Stability

This book dives into a specialized collection of peer-reviewed research from the Indian Geotechnical Conference (IGC)-2023, jointly organized by IIT Roorkee, CSIR-CBRI, Roorkee, and IGS Roorkee Chapter. This particular book, part of the extensive IGC-2023 proceedings, focuses exclusively on landslides and slope stability, a critical area within geotechnical engineering.

Originally presented at the conference held from December 14-16, 2023, at IIT Roorkee, the papers in this book highlight latest advancements in landslide susceptibility mapping for sustainable development, geo-material characterization, numerical modeling and stability analysis, rainfall-induced slope failure, slope stability improvement, slope instrumentations, artificial neural networks, and so on. This book explores in-depth analyses, innovative methodologies, and practical case studies related to landslide prevention, mitigation, and slope stabilization techniques.

This book is an essential resource for researchers, practitioners, and students grappling with the complexities of slope instability and seeking sustainable solutions. It discovers contributions from leading experts, rigorously reviewed to ensure high quality and relevance.
