EXPERIMENTAL INVESTIGATION ON CONTROLLING PARAMETERS OF FLOWSLIDE FROM MSITURE CONTENT MEASUREMENTS

In tropical areas, most cases of slope failures have been due to rainfall. Slope failure is one of the major geohazards that occur worldwide, including Malaysia. Due to rainfall, the moisture content increases gradually, and with the increase in moisture content, the negative pore pressure (matri...
