This is an open access book. The aim of this book is to provide a thorough grounding in
rainfall-induced landslides from three aspects: the coupling effect of hydraulic and mechanic
the analytical numerical and physical simulation methods and the controlling factors
underlying the problem of rainfall-induced landslides. The improved numerical methods
nonlinear and linear iterative methods which can be used to address the related unsaturated
infiltration problems are also presented. This book is an essential reading for researchers and
graduate students who are interested in rainfall infiltration landslides slope stability and
geohazards in fields of civil engineering engineering geology and earth science. The book is
written to guide professional engineers and practitioners in slope engineering and geohazard
management. This book can enhance their understanding of rainfall-induced landslides help them
analyze a specific problem prevent landslides and design engineering slopes according to the
local soil and climate conditions.
