Modelling viscous behaviour of clayey geomaterials using single mechanical-analogue model

The design of sustainable early warning systems for landslide prone areas requires deep understanding of the kinematic of landslides with emphasis on the evolution of its movement. This is controlled by many factors, and creep is a major one. Creep is perceptively slow land sliding process where the...
