Stability of unsaturated soil slopes under rainfall and seismic loading

Rainfall and earthquake are the two main factors that can cause landslides in unsaturated soils. Earthquake loading is cyclic in nature. The effect of cyclic loading on the shear strength of unsaturated soils was investigated by conducting cyclic and monotonic simple shear tests. The main objective...
