European training Network for In situ imaGing of dynaMic processes in heterogeneous subsurfAce environments (ENIGMA)
Start date: Jan 1, 2017, End date: Dec 31, 2020,
The ENIGMA network will train a new generation of young researchers in the development of innovative sensors, field survey techniques and inverse modelling approaches. This will enhance our ability to understand and monitor dynamic subsurface processes that are key to the protection and sustainable use of water resources. ENIGMA focuses mainly on critical zone observation, but the anticipated tech ...

Geohazards: Risk Assessment, Mitigation and Prevention (GEO-RAMP)
Start date: Apr 1, 2015, End date: Mar 31, 2019,
This proposal aims to provide a step change in terms of our capacity to assess and predict risks due to geohazards (landslides and rock slides, earthquakes, floods). This is necessary in order to make built environments and infrastructures resilient to the increasing threat of natural hazards due to the expanding size of European cities and urban centres, increased use of infrastructure, and the ...

Reinforced Vegetation Numerical Evaluation of Slopes (REVENUES)
Start date: Jan 1, 2013, End date: Dec 31, 2016,
Vegetation acts as a reinforcement for slopes due to the penetration of roots into the ground. Roots penetration is a time dependent phenomenon that is strongly connected to the hydrogeological condition of the slope and that interacts with soil properties. Roots reinforcement of soil is well documented and numerous formulae exist in literature. The reinforcement action is provided by roots penetr ...

Multiscale Modelling of Landslides and Debris Flows (MUMOLADE)
Start date: Jan 1, 2012, End date: Dec 31, 2015,
"Landslides and debris flows are serious geo-hazards common to countries with mountainous terrains. The high speed and the enormity of debris mass make debris flows one of the most dangerous natural hazards. Debris flows are often triggered by landslides partially or completely mobilizing into debris flows. Globally, landslides cause billions of dollars in damage and thousands of deaths and injuri ...

PARticle Systems: Training on DEM simulation for industrial and scientific applications (PARDEM)
Start date: Nov 1, 2009, End date: Oct 31, 2013,
"The overarching aim of the PARDEM project is to provide high quality training to a group of young researchers to work within and to further develop the multidisciplinary field of DEM computational simulation of granular processes. Granular materials are estimated to constitute over 75% of all raw material feedstock to industry. They also present many challenges for innovation and fundamental scie ...
