Dear ,
Today we will talk about the phenomenon of the formation of the " Earth Pillars". In our blog, we have published an article about these peculiar formations caused by the erosive action of water. Washout processes are responsible of the erosion of considerable quantities of sediment which leads to the definition of the phenomenon of denudation of the slope he morphogenetic processes, the entity of sliding and the slope modeling are influenced by the following processes:
- Climate;
- Running water;
- Gravity;
- Characteristics of the soil / rock on the surface (lithology; particle size, cohesion, degree of cementation; permeability);
- Topography and morphology of the slopes;
- Human influences.

Our software dedicated to slope stability
With these scenarios, it is of fundamental importance to accurately assess the degree of slope stability using specific software such as: - Slope – Slope Stability: carries out the analysis of soil or rock slope stability both under static and seismic conditions, using the limit equilibrium methods and (DEM) Discrete elements method for circular and non-circular surfaces by which it is possible to ascertain slippages in the slope, examine a gradual failure, and employ various models of force-deformation relationship. Under seismic conditions it carries out both static and dynamic analysis.
