McLellan, Patrick John Alexander.
Masters thesis which documents field observations from the Nozzle and Rockslide Pass rock avalanches. Also evaluates, modifies and calibrates a two-parameter hydraulic model for the purpose of rock avalanche and velocity prediction.

Landslide Mitigation Using Granular Shear Keys: Observations from a Review of 38 Case Studies
DownloadFall 2017
Canadian transportation industries have been using granular shear keys to remediate shallow slope instabilities for decades. Engineers have used limit equilibrium (LE) analyses as the standard method for designing these granular shear keys (Wyllie & Mah, 2004). These LE analyses do not account...

Landslide Risk to Railway Operations and Resilience in the Thompson River Valley near Ashcroft, British Columbia
DownloadFall 2017
This thesis investigates the hazard frequency and associated risk posed by twelve large landslides in the Thompson River Valley south of Ashcroft, British Columbia, which are collectively referred to as the Ashcroft Thompson River landslides. The Canadian National and Canadian Pacific railways...
