Geological-Geotechnical Characterization of Slopes Belonging to the Serra do Mar Paranaense, Brazil

July 08, 2019
An extensive campaign of field and laboratory tests were performed on samples of residual soils and colluviums present in the morphoscultural sub-unit comprising Serra do Mar Paranaense located in Southern Brazil. The geotechnical investigations included the physical characterization, in situ hydraulic conductivity and the mechanical behavior of the soils, by me...

Rainfall Effects on Pore Pressure Changes in a Coastal Slope of the Serra do Mar in Santa Catarina

September 21, 2017

This research aims to describe how rainfall can cause changes in the piezometric pore pressure and soil matric suction in a densely instrumented slope by the South BR-101 (Brazilian Numbered Highway), in the area of Morro do Boi, in the State of Santa Catarina, South Region of Brazil. The slope presented a history of instability movements instigated by ...
