Nature of Sensitive Clays from Québec
Jacques Locat,Daniel St-Gelais +1 more
TL;DR: The relationship between activity and specific surface area of sensitive clays shows that when compared to soils from different sedimentary basins that have different mineralogy, they are characterized by a much lower activity as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Shear Strength Development with Burial in Eel River Margin Slope Sediments
TL;DR: In this article, a series of cores were obtained from the Eel River Margin area of Eureka, California and geotechnical analysis of intact specimens and of reconstituted samples provided some insight on the development of shear strength with burial.
Book ChapterDOI
New insight of geomorphology and landslide prone area detection using digital elevation model(s)
TL;DR: Locat et al. as discussed by the authors used a 3D shaded relief that displays one color for each dip and direction of dip for landslide hazard assessment in the western Swiss Alps, where the orientation of each single cell can be represented by 3D-shaded relief.
Journal ArticleDOI
