Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvaluation of Slope Assessment Systems for Predicting Landslides of Cut Slopes in Granitic and Meta-sediment FormationsSuhaimi Jamaludin, Bujang B.K. Huat, Husaini OmarIn Malaysia, slope assessment systems (SAS) are widely used in assessing the instability of slope or the probability of occurrence and the likely severity of landslides. These SAS can be derived based on either one particular approach or combination of several approaches of landslide assessments and prediction. This study overviews four slope assessment systems (SAS) developed in Malaysia for predicting … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2006 · 6,912 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvaluation of Environmental and Hydraulic Performance of Bio-Composite Revetment BlocksThamer A. Mohamed, Nor A. Alias, Abdul H. Ghazali, Mohd. S. JaafarIt is necessary to develop a concrete revetment block which can cater for environment and at the same time it will be effective in protecting river banks (stabilize the slope of banks) from scouring during flood. In the present study, the environmental and hydraulic performance of the proposed revetment block was evaluated through laboratory and field tests. The tested revetment … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2006 · 6,969 accessesView PDFCite
