The evaluation of riverbank stability is a fundamental problem in flood risk management, representing a critical task for engineering practice. Soil heterogeneity together with initial and boundary conditions are among the crucial issues that should be considered to obtain an accurate solution of the problem. Generally, attention and efforts are mostly devoted to the soil characterization, the hydrometric...
The Po River (Northern Italy) is the longest watercourse in Italy and over half of its length is safeguarded by major river embankments. Their stability is crucial for the local communities, being the Po River plain densely populated. Among all possible failure mechanisms, backward erosion piping at the interface between the bottom sandy aquifer and the overlying fine-grained soils has proved to be...
