Landslides and debris flows belong to the most dangerous natural
hazards in many parts of the world. Despite intensive research,
these events continue to result in human suffering, property
losses, and environmental degradation every year. Better
understanding of the mechanisms and processes of landslides and
debris flows will help make reliable predictions, develop
mitigation strategies and reduce vulnerability of infrastructure.
This book presents contributions to the workshop on Recent
Developments in the Analysis, Monitoring and Forecast of Landslides
and Debris Flow, in Vienna, Austria, September 9, 2013. The
contributions cover a broad spectrum of topics from material
behavior, physical modelling over numerical simulation to
applications and case studies. The workshop is a joint event of
three research projects funded by the European Commission within
the 7th Framework Program: MUMOLADE (Multiscale modelling of
landslides and debris flows, www.mumolade.com), REVENUES (Numerical
Analysis of Slopes with Vegetations, http://www.revenues-eu.com)
and HYDRODRIL (Integrated Risk Assessment of Hydrologically-Driven
Landslides, www.boku.ac.at/igt/).
