In this study, the instability of rainfall-induced shallow landslides on Mt. Umyeonsan was examined by a coupled hydro-mechanical finite element (FE) model. Field and laboratory investigations were performed to explore mechanisms of shallow landslides and to determine the model parameters. The coupl...
