Objective The scientific goal of HYDRODRIL is to investigate and evaluate the risk and nature of hydrologically-driven landslides, therefore making a contribution to a better understanding of the relationship between small-scale deformations in soil/rock structures, the failure mechanisms induced by these deformations and the following large-scale dynamic behavior, as well as a detailed risk assessment programme. Major entities of HYDRODRIL will be the extensive monitoring Xintan-landslide in the Three-Gorges region (Hubei province, China), correspondent experiments on a small-scale model in centrifuge tests and FEM and multiscale modeling approach of landslides in numerical simulations. The broad-based research group, consisting of experts in their respective fields, will cover geotechnical, geological, geophysical and geographical issues.
