Rock slope stability is a critical area of geotechnical engineering, addressing the failure mechanisms that result in the toppling of rock blocks within stratified masses. Toppling failure commonly ...

Long live rock — thanks to a rock, rock, rock-and-roll high school where tykes can learn the ropes like the great rockers before them. Musician Jason Domnarski is starting a real-life “School of Rock” ...

Rock slope failures are source of major hazards in both natural Cordilleran slopes and artificial slopes such as road cuts or mines. Rock slides, falls and avalanches of variable volume pose a threat ...

The Rock Slope Engineering Laboratory of the Department of Mining Engineering, IIT (ISM) Dhanbad, was established in 2021. It is a dedicated research lab on mine slope stability and management ...

Strong earthquakes may fracture bedrock in a way that amplifies shaking during subsequent seismic events, increasing the chances of future rockslides and other quake-linked hazards, researchers find.
