Between 2018 and 2020, several landslides occurred on solar power plants constructed on hillsides after extreme rainfall in South Korea. This study presents a physics-informed machine-learning model to conduct real-time physically-based landslide susceptibility assessment on solar panels installed on mountains. Through a statistical filtering process, fourteen landslide triggering factors related to the topography, soil geotec...

The eye of a cephalopod is a well-known example of convergent evolution and resembles the vertebrate eye. Although cephalopods and vertebrates exhibit similar eye form and function, they differ in visual origin and structure. The common long-arm octopus ( Octopus minor ) is a good model system in evolutionary and developmental studies due to its highly centralized nervous system, shorter life cycle, and specific camera-type ey...

Debris flows are one of the perilous landslide-related hazards due to their fast flow velocity, large impact force, and long runout, in association with poor predictability. Debris-flow barriers that can minimize the energy of debris flows have been widely constructed to mitigate potential damages. However, the interactions between debris flows and barriers remain poorly understood, which hampers the optimal barrier installati...
