... Body waves, which can travel through the interior of the earth, are of two types: pwaves and s-waves (figure 1.10). P-waves, also known as primary, compression, or longitudinal waves, involve successive compression and rarefaction of the materials through which they pass. They are analogous to sound ...

Quantification of rock mass deterioration process for cut slope
... Road construction in mountainous areas especially in humid tropical climates is often afflicted by slope instability. Road cut slopes are designed to be stable over a certain time span; i.e. the engineering lifetime, however many slopes or parts of slopes fail before the end of the lifetime. The rea ...
