TLDR
In this article, a geoelectrical investigation of a slow moving earth slide in Lower Jurassic Lias Group rocks of the Cleveland Basin, UK, is described, which includes a reconnaissance survey phase using two-dimensional electrical resistivity tomography (ERT), resistivity mapping, self-potential (SP) profiling and mapping, followed by a detailed investigation of an area of the landslide using three-dimensional (3D) ERT and selfpotential tomography.

Poisson's ratios and S-wave velocities of the Xishancun landslide, Sichuan, China, inferred from high-frequency receiver functions of local earthquakes

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used the Vp-k stacking and nonlinear waveform inversion methods of high-frequency receiver functions extracted from local earthquakes, to sequentially invert Poisson's ratios and S-wave velocities of the Quaternary Xishancun landslide, which is composed of three segments.

Morphology and Internal Structure of Magnesia Whiskers

TL;DR: Magnesia whiskers were studied by means of X-ray topography, and optical and electron microscopies as discussed by the authors, and the results obtained were as follows: 1) No internal defects were detected by X-Ray topography but contrast changes were found at tips of the whiskers.

Challenges in monitoring and managing engineered slopes in a changing climate

TL;DR: In this article, electrical resistance tomography (ERT) is used to measure soil water content indirectly via resistivity, and the relationship between resistivity and water content will change over time for a given slope.

Railway Earthworks: Integrating Ground Investigation Data into Ground Models

J. Wragg
TL;DR: In this article, the authors discuss the development of fit-for-purpose property distributions or ground models for rail network planning and system modelling based on former geological mapping and site investigation, which can be combined to identify material changes causing heterogeneity and larger scale structural features within natural or made ground, and provide inputs for process monitoring and modelling.

A numerical comparison of 2D resistivity imaging with 10 electrode arrays

TL;DR: In this article, numerical simulations are used to compare the resolution and efficiency of 2D resistivity imaging surveys for 10 electrode arrays, including pole-pole (PP), pole-dipole (PD), half-Wenner (HW), Wenner-α (WN), Schlumberger (SC), dipole-dipsole (DD), WenNER-β (WB), γ -array (GM), multiple or moving gradient array (GD) and midpoint-potential-referred measurement (MPR) arrays.
