Interaction between Slope Movements and Man Made Works
Naples, 23-25 November 2015
The Fourth Italian Workshop on Landslides will take place in Naples on November, 23-25, jointly organised by the Seconda Università di Napoli and the Università di Napoli Federico II. As usual, the workshop will involve renowned international experts.
The main session will concern the interaction between landslides and man made works; both slow slope movements and rapid landslides will be considered. Again, a special session will deal with the intriguing relationship between hydrology and soil mechanics. Precipitation-induced landslides is the topic of the session, that will be focused on the role of both long-term predisposing factors and trigger. Finally, a special self-organised “young session” on landslide hazard and consequences will conclude the event.
As usual, large room will be left for lively discussions. All contributions, possibly including those that will be presented during the discussions, will be collected and published in an open access journal.
Once again, the registration fees will be very cheap in order to allow as many guys as possible to attend the event and possibly lively contribute to the scientific sessions. Therefore, we cordially invite all people that are interested in landslide problems to come and participate in the meeting.
On 26 November 2015 the short course:
