Multi-source data analysis for conceptual modelling of slow landslide mechanisms: Application to the Pianello hillslope in the Daunia Appenines

Nunzio Losacco, Federica Cotecchia, F. Santaloia, Claudia Vitone et autres

A thorough diagnosis of landslide processes at the slope scale is the prerequisite for the design and implementation of effective and sustainable mitigation measures. This paper describes the advanced application of the first, phenomenological stage of an already published stagewise methodological approach …

Numerical modelling of geological processes as means for the diagnosis of ancient landslide mechanisms

Vito Tagarelli, F. Santaloia, Gaetano Elia, Federica Cotecchia

The occurrence of deep paleo-landslides in marine clays is a well-documented phenomenon in multiple slopes within the south-eastern Italian Apennines and their associated foredeep basin. To accurately diagnose the mechanisms occurring in such landslides, a comprehensive numerical simulation of the processes leading …

A novel strategy to digitalize, integrate and analyse data for the characterisation of landslides in turbiditic deposits

Nunzio Losacco, V. Bufano, Esteban G. Tabak, F. Santaloia et autres

A phenomenological interpretation of the slope factors and lanslide mechanism represents the first stage for the assessment of landslide hazard at the slope scale. This requires processing, analysing and integrating a large set of multidisciplinary and heterogeneous data, obtained through diverse activities, …

Medium-high density soft micrites: impact of microstructural features on state and compressibility

Adrian Mifsud, Federica Cotecchia, F. Santaloia, Francesco Cafaro

Three soft rock facies of the Middle Globigerina Limestone (MGL) from Malta, of mineralogical composition and index properties similar to some medium-high density Chalk facies, are disaggregated through prolonged agitation in water to create reconstituted samples. The significant activity of their clay-sized …

Anatomy of ancient landslides along the front of the Daunia Sub-Apennine, Italy

Francesco Bucci, Mauro Cardinali, Luca Pisano, Francesco Filice et autres

In the Daunia Mountains (NW corner of the Puglia Region, in Southern Italy), tens of very large, previously unknown, very old and apparently relict landslides were recently recognized in the framework of a geomorphological landslide inventory covering an area of about 2000 …

Regional-Scale Seismic Liquefaction Susceptibility Mapping via an Empirical Approach Validated by Site-Specific Analyses

Veronica Zumpano, Luca Pisano, Francesco Filice, Angelo Ugenti et autres

Regional-scale analyses of susceptibility to liquefaction are seldom performed in data-scarce areas. However, in spite of data limitations, such efforts can still provide useful information in case of populated, seismically active regions. The present work focuses on susceptibility zonation for soil liquefaction …

The Geo-Hydro-Mechanical Properties of a Turbiditic Formation as Internal Factors of Slope Failure Processes

Nunzio Losacco, Osvaldo Bottiglieri, F. Santaloia, Claudia Vitone et autres

Similar to many inner areas of Southern Europe, the Daunia Apennines are affected by widespread landsliding, often consisting of slow, deep-seated movements. Recurrent acceleration of these landslides causes damage to buildings and infrastructures, severely biasing the socio-economic development of the region. Most …

A geo-chemo-mechanical study of a highly polluted marine system (Taranto, Italy) for the enhancement of the conceptual site model

Federica Cotecchia, Claudia Vitone, Francesca Sollecito, Matilda Mali et autres

The paper presents the results of the analysis of the geo-chemo-mechanical data gathered through an innovative multidisciplinary investigation campaign in the Mar Piccolo basin, a heavily polluted marine bay aside the town of Taranto (Southern Italy). The basin is part of an …

Multi-scale approach to analyse the evolution of soft rock coastal cliffs and role of controlling factors: a case study in South-Eastern Italy

Piernicola Lollino, Rosa Pagliarulo, Rosamaria Trizzino, F. Santaloia et autres

The evolution of soft rock coastlines is strictly related to natural and anthropogenic conditions, which in some cases can determine also an acceleration of coastal retreat. The recent evolution of a soft rocky coastal stretch on the Italian southern Adriatic sector is …

An interdisciplinary approach to landslide damage assessment in urban areas

Fabrizio Palmisano, Claudia Vitone, Federica Cotecchia, F. Santaloia et autres

This paper presents some results of a multidisciplinary research about the assessment of damages to ordinary buildings at the urban scale in landslide areas. The methodology represents part of a multi-level approach for landslide vulnerability assessment that has been recently developed. It …

Towards A Geo-Hydro-Mechanical Characterization of Landslide Classes: Preliminary Results

Federica Cotecchia, F. Santaloia, Vito Tagarelli

Nowadays, landslides still cause both deaths and heavy economic losses around the world, despite the development of risk mitigation measures, which are often not effective; this is mainly due to the lack of proper analyses of landslide mechanisms. As such, in order …
