Rainfall-induced transportation embankment failure: A review

Xu Linrong,
Aliyu Bamaiyi Usman,
Al-Amin Danladi Bello
et al.

Abstract: Rainfall is one of the leading causes of transportation embankment failure. Similarly, the fill material properties and the loading conditions of the embankment serve as principals for assessing the mechanisms of potential failures that are derived from rainfall-related events. These events affect the hydro-mechanical behaviors of embankment fills and cast doubt on the construction and service life of most transportation-infrastructure. This article presents a review, of existing available records to criticall… Show more

“…The exposure of embankment infrastructure to natural hazards is unavoidable [1]. This results in the instability of embankment slopes, which has increased in recent times due to human activities [2] and climate variability [3]. On a global scale, this problem poses a serious threat to the management and development of railway infrastructure and similar transportation networks [4].…”
