This study developed a model for mapping the earthquake-induced landslide susceptibility in Nuweiba area in Egypt with considerations of geological, geomorphological, topographical, and seismological factors. An integrated approach of remote sensing and GIS technologies were applied for that target. Several data sources including Terra SAR-X and SPOT 5 satellite imagery, topographic maps, field data, and other geospatial resources were used to model landslide susceptibility. These data were used specifically to produce important thematic layers contributing to landslide occurrences in the region. A rating scheme was developed to assign ranks for the thematic layers and weights for their classes based on their contribution in landslide susceptibility. The ranks and weights were defined based on the knowledge from field survey and authors experiences related to the study area. The landslide susceptibility map delineates the hazard zones to three relative classes of susceptibility: high, moderate, and low. Therefore, the current approach provides a way to assess landslide hazards and serves for geo-hazard planning and prediction in Nuweiba area.展开更多

A reactivated landslide is a complex process. The engineering practices have shown that a correct understanding of the reactivated mechanism of an ancient giant landslide is significant for the landslide mitigation. In this paper, a case study of the ancient Badu landslide that underwent multiple reactivations during the construction of Nanning-Kunming railway was discussed.

The reactivated mechanism of the landslide is analyzed by use of geological process analysis method and is simulated using the 3D FEM (finite element method).

The understanding of this kind of reactivated mechanism had helped engineers to take efficient and economic mitigation measures to stabilize the landslide.展开更多
