  • Book
  • © 2017

Overview

  • Broadens your understanding of the dynamic characteristics of rock slope with two-side slopes

  • Shares many tips on the deformation of slope and the landslide forming mechanism from the time domain, frequency domain and time-frequency domain

  • Proposes a time-frequency method using Hilbert-Huang transform, then verifies it by shaking table test and numerical simulation

  • Includes supplementary material: sn.pub/extras

About this book

This book begins with the dynamic characteristics of the covering layerbedrock type slope, containing monitoring data of the seismic array, shaking table tests, numerical analysis and theoretical derivation. Then it focuses on the landslide mechanism and assessment method. It also proposes a model that assessing the hazard area based on the field investigations. Many questions, exercises and solutions are given. Researchers and engineers in the field of Geotechnical Engineering and Anti-seismic Engineering can benefit from it.
