This book is the result of an elaborate project initiated by the Joint Technical Committee (JTC-1) of 1) the International Society for Soil Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering, 2) the International Association for Engineering Geology and the Environment, 3) the International Society for Rock Mechanics, and 4) the International Geotextile Society, with the focus on natural slopes and landslides.
The framework of the book sets out the steps, based on recent disaster experiences in the twenty-first century, leading to the assessment of earthquake-induced landslide hazards. It contains: 1) important cases of landslides triggered by earthquakes around the world; 2) investigation into the characteristics of ground motion site response; 3) methods to determine landslide susceptibility and triggering thresholds and their comparative study; and 4) commentary on the production of earthquake-induced landslide hazard maps. All the contents are the result of the latest researchon related areas. The book is a valuable resource for researchers, designers, consultants, academicians, government officials, and all others who are involved in the mitigation of coseismic landslides. The book contributes toward the development of a new chapter in disaster prevention and mitigation of landslides induced by earthquakes.

He has left an indisputable legacy in geotechnical research, particularly in earthquake geotechnical engineering. He published more than 400 English papers in international journals and conference proceedings and a comprehensive book on geotechnical earthquake engineering. He has also maintained a lifelong dedication to education, as evidenced by his many years of service as a professor at The University of Tokyo, a distinguished visiting professor at the Indian Institute of Technology, Bombay, as well as thetime spent at the Asian Institute of Technology, Thailand. He has taught and supervised numerous students from more than 30 countries.
Dr. Gonghui Wang is a professor in the Disaster Prevention Research Institute, Kyoto University, Japan. He has been working on landslide disaster and mitigation measures from the perspectives of geophysics, geotechnics, and engineering geology for more than two decades. His research interests include landslide dynamics, climate change landslides, landslide dams, granular mechanics, soil liquefaction, risk management, and disaster and environmental education. He has published more than 200 papers in scientific journals and conference proceedings. He has also co-edited two books published by Springer. He is currently an editorial board member of Engineering Geology, Landslides, Geosciences, and other Japanese and Chinese journals.
Dr. Qiang Xu is a professor and vice president of the Chengdu University of Technology. He is also the deputy vice director of the State Key Laboratory of Geohazard Prevention and Geoenvironment Protection, China. He is mainly working on landslide hazard assessment and risk management, with a special focus on landslide monitoring and early warning as well as emergency countermeasures. He has worked closely with local communities, NGOs, and governments, and he has published more than 500 papers as well as 15 books in Chinese and English. He also works as an editor of several international journals.
Dr. Chris Massey is an engineering geologist at the Institute of Geological and Nuclear Sciences (GNS Science), New Zealand, and holds a Ph.D. from the University of Durham. He has wide experience in geology, geomorphology, and geotechnics, with a rich work background in Hong Kong, Australia, and now in New Zealand (GNS). His research interests include rock-fall analysis and design, landslide monitoring and modeling, geohazard assessment and mitigation, geological and geomorphological mapping, earthquake-induced landslide estimates, and numerical modeling. He has published more than 140 papers in scientific journals and in books and conference proceedings. He worked as the leader of several national projects on landslides in New Zealand. He also works as an editorial board member of Engineering Geology.

Instructions for revocation
Right of withdrawal for the sale of goods
Revocation right for consumers
(A ‘consumer' is any natural person who concludes a legal transaction which, to an overwhelming extent, cannot be attributed to either his commercial or independent professional activities.)
Instructions for revocation
Revocation right
You have the right to revoke this contract within 14 days without specifying any reasons.
The revocation period is 14 days with effect from the day,
-
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the products, provided you had ordered one or more products within the scope of a standard order and this/these product/products is/are delivered uniformly;
-
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the last product, provided you had ordered several products within the scope of a standard order and these products are delivered separately;
-
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the last part delivery or the last unit, provided you had ordered a product, which is delivered in several part deliveries or units;
To exercise your right of withdrawal, you must inform us (preigu GmbH & Co. KG, Lengericher Landstr. 19, 49078 Osnabrück, Telephone number: +49 (0) 541 / 580 72 84, E-Mail address: mail@preigu.de) by means of a clear declaration (e.g. a letter sent by post, or an e-mail) of your decision to withdraw from this contract. You can use the attached model withdrawal form for this purpose, which is, however, not mandatory.
You can also exercise your right of withdrawal online by clicking on a button labelled accordingly (such as ‘Withdraw from contract' or similar) on the AbeBooks/ZVAB website. If you use this online function, you will immediately receive a confirmation of receipt on a durable medium (e.g. via email) containing information on the content of the withdrawal notice, as well as the date and time of its receipt.
In order to safeguard the revocation period, it is sufficient that you send the notification about the exercise of the revocation right before the expiry of the revocation period.
Consequences of the revocation
If you revoke this contract, we shall repay all the payments, which we received from you, including the delivery costs (with the exception of additional costs, which arise from that fact that you selected a form of delivery other than the most reasonable standard delivery offered by us), immediately and at the latest within 14 days from the day on which we received the notification about the revocation of this contract from you. We use the same means of payment, which you had originally used during the original transaction, for this repayment unless expressly agreed otherwise with you; you will not be charged any fees owing to this repayment.
We can refuse the repayment until the products are returned to us or until you have furnished evidence that you have sent the products back to us, depending on whichever is earlier.
You must return or transfer the products to us immediately and, in any case, at the latest within 14 days with effect from the day on which you inform us of the revocation of this contract. The deadline is maintained if you send the products before the expiry of the 14 day deadline.
You bear the direct costs for returning the products.
You must pay for any depreciation of the products only if this depreciation can be attributed to any handling with you that was not necessary for checking the condition, features and functionality of the products.
Criteria for exclusion or expiry
The revocation right is not available for contracts
-
for delivery of products, which are not prefabricated and for whose manufacturing an individual selection or stipulation by the consumer is important or which are clearly tailored to the personal requirements of the consumer;

-
for delivery of alcoholic drinks, whose price was agreed at the time of concluding the contract, which however can be delivered 30 days after the conclusion of the contract at the earliest and whose current value depends on the fluctuations in the market, on which the entrepreneur has no influence;
