The Niscemi landslide: hydrogeological risk analysis and advanced tools for slope stability

Engineering, Geology, Geotechnics

Case study • Hydrogeological instability The Niscemi landslide: from mapped risk to 3D modelling and stability analyses An integrated approach: GeoRisk for hazard, GeoStru Maps for the three-dimensional reconstruction, Slope (LEM+DEM) for 2D/3D stability and Debris Flow for rapid phenomena. Why this event matters The Niscemi landslide shows how much risk management requires tools able…

Preliminary sizing of naturalistic engineering works is one of the most important operations to be carried out before the detailed design of the works, certainly preceding technical checks and subsequent final sizing. Having quick and efficient tools at your disposal to perform initial checks and assess whether the chosen techniques can solve the issues has…
