Накратко на български
Геоложките опасности като земетресения, наводнения и свла same се анализират чрез техните физико-механични причини. По-доброто разбиране на тези процеси помага за по-точна оценка на рисковете, намаляване на щетите по инфраструктурата и по-справедливо определяне на застрахователните премии.

Geohazards: Risk Assessment, Mitigation and Prevention
The GEO-RAMP project aims to provide a step change in terms of our capacity to assess and predict risks due to geohazards (landslides and rock slides, earthquakes, floods). This will result in reduced loss of human life, reduced damaged to buildings and infrastructure and the associated disruption of economic activities, and will have far reaching consequences on the way insurers operate in calculating risk. Better understanding of the physico-mechanical causes of geohazards is pivotal to allow the establishment of cause – effect links between hazards and potential losses. This will lead to fairer insurance premiums and in turn hopefully a reduced use of exclusion clauses, sublimits, and coverage ceilings by insurers. The project brings together the complementary expertise of world leading groups carrying out research on the engineering assessment, prevention and mitigation of geohazards, the main ones being floods, landslides, and earthquakes. In summary, the goals of the project are: • To investigate the key physico-mechanical aspects of major geohazards with a multi-disciplinary approach in order to bridge the current gaps in knowledge and enable a step-change in the current capabilities of risk assessment, prevention, and mitigation. • To generate new approaches to predicting geohazards by creating an international, interdisciplinary and intersectoral group which will combine existing knowledge to generate new research methodologies and applications by enabling knowledge exchange among researchers with expertise in complementary research fields. • To train several Early Stage Researches (ESRs) during their stay at the host Institution who will form the next generation of researchers for academic and industrial applications. • To improve the current normative standards and codes ruling geohazard prevention. • To provide a competitive edge to European engineering software companies modelling geohazards.

Цел на проекта
This proposal aims to provide a step change in terms of our capacity to assess and predict risks due to geohazards (landslides and rock slides, earthquakes, floods). This is necessary in order to make built environments and infrastructures resilient to the increasing threat of natural hazards due to the expanding size of European cities and urban centres, increased use of infrastructure, and the effect of increased climatic variations. To achieve this we will bring together the complementary expertise of world leading academic groups in geotechnical, geoenvironmental and seismic engineering, soil and rock mechanics, seismology, hydrology, geology together with private engineering software companies. The goals of this proposal are: i) to investigate the key physical-mechanical aspects of major geohazards (landslides, earthquakes, floods) with a multi-disciplinary approach in order to bridge the current gaps in knowledge and enable a step-change in the current capabilities of risk assessment, prevention, and mitigation; ii) to generate new approaches to predicting geohazards by creating an international, interdisciplinary and intersectoral group which will combine existing knowledge to generate new research methodologies and applications by enabling knowledge exchange among researchers with expertise in complementary research fields; iii) to train several Early Stage Researches (ESRs) during their stay at the host Institution who will form the next generation of researchers for academic and industrial applications; iv) to improve the current normative standards and codes ruling geohazard prevention; v) to provide a competitive edge to European engineering software companies modelling geohazards.
