Seismicity is a major trigger for landslides with often devastating effects. The Japan Landslide Society (JLS) therefore organized a meeting fully dedicated to the research area of earthquake induced landslides. The symposium covers all aspects of earthquake-induced landslides including the phenomena occurred in manmade embankments as well as in natural slopes in mountainous areas. In this comprehensive volume on landslide science the JLS presents the Proceedings of this First International Symposium on Earthquake-Induced Landslides, held in November 2012 in Kiryu, Japan.

This book is the result of an elaborate project initiated by the Joint Technical Committee (JTC-1) of 1) the International Society for Soil Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering, 2) the International Association for Engineering Geology and the Environment, 3) the International Society for Rock Mechanics, and 4) the International Geotextile Society, with the focus on natural slopes and landslides. The framework of the book sets out the steps, based on recent disaster experiences in the twenty-first century, leading to the assessment of earthquake-induced landslide hazards. It contains: 1) important cases of landslides triggered by earthquakes around the world; 2) investigation into the characteristics of ground motion site response; 3) methods to determine landslide susceptibility and triggering thresholds and their comparative study; and 4) commentary on the production of earthquake-induced landslide hazard maps. All the contents are the result of the latest research on related areas. The book is a valuable resource for researchers, designers, consultants, academicians, government officials, and all others who are involved in the mitigation of coseismic landslides. The book contributes toward the development of a new chapter in disaster prevention and mitigation of landslides induced by earthquakes.

This book sheds new light on improved methods for the study of the initiation and run-out of earthquake-induced landslides. It includes an initiation study method that considers tension-shear failure mechanism; an improved, rigorous, dynamic sliding-block method based on dynamic critical acceleration; and a run-out analysis of earthquake-induced landslides that takes account of the trampoline effect, all of which add to the accuracy and accessibility of landslide study. The book includes abundant illustrations, figures and tables, making it a valuable resource for those looking for practical landslide research tools.

Earthquake-induced sliding displacements are commonly used to assess the seismic performance of slopes. These displacements represent the cumulative, downslope movement of a sliding block due to earthquake shaking. While the sliding block model is a simplified representation of the field conditions, the displacements predicted from this model have been shown to be a useful index of seismic performance of slopes. Current evaluation procedures that use sliding block displacements to evaluate the potential for slope instability typically are based on a deterministic approach or a pseudo-probabilistic approach, in which the variabilities in the expected ground motion and predicted displacement are either ignored or not treated rigorously. Thus, there is no concept of the actual hazard (i.e., the annual probability of exceedance) associated with the computed displacement. This dissertation focuses on quantifying the risk for earthquake-induced landslides. The basic approach involves a probabilistic framework for computing the annual rate of exceedance of different levels of sliding displacement for a slope such that a hazard curve for sliding displacement can be developed. The framework incorporates the uncertainties in the prediction of earthquake ground shaking, in the prediction of sliding displacement, and in the assessment of soil properties. The framework considers two procedures that will yield a displacement hazard curve: the scalar hazard approach that utilizes a single ground motion parameter and its associated hazard curve to compute permanent sliding displacements; and a vector hazard approach that predicts displacements based on two (or more) ground motion parameters and the correlation between these parameters. Current predictive models for sliding displacement provide the expected level of displacement as a function of the characteristics of the slope (e.g., geometry, strength, yield acceleration) and the characteristics of earthquake shaking (e.g., peak ground acceleration, peak ground velocity). However, current models contain significant aleatory variability such that the range of predicted displacements is large. To reduce the variability in the sliding displacement prediction and to provide models appropriate for the presented probabilistic framework, sliding displacement predictive equations are developed that utilize single and multiple ground motion parameters. The developed framework is implemented to the Mint Canyon 7.5-minute quadrangle in California to generate a map of earthquake-induced landslide hazard. Application of the probabilistic procedure to a 7-1/2 minute quadrangle of California is an important exercise to identify potential difficulties in California Geological Survey's (CGS) current application for hazard mapping, and for the eventual adoption by CGS and USGS.

This book presents the global landslide risk preparedness implemented through the International Programme on Landslides (IPL). IPL was initiated by the International Consortium on Landslides (ICL) in 2002, and developed to a joint international programme by the IPL Global Promotion Committee (UNESCO, WMO, FAO, UNISDR, UNU, ICSU and WFEO as well as ICL) through the 2006 Tokyo Action Plan. The materials consists of four parts: Outline of the International Programme on Landslides & IPL Global Promotion Committee; Achievements of major IPL projects in research and capacity building; World Centres of Excellence on Landslide Risk Reduction (WCoEs) and Landslide School Network; Key documents of IPL and ICL including Tokyo Action Plan, Application of ICL, IPL Projects, WCoEs and Landslide School Network
