Influencia de la morfogénesis en la estabilidad de laderas.

Slope stability is defined by intrinsic factors (geological, geomorphological, hydrogeological and geotechnical) and exogenous factors (rains and earthquakes), that when analyzed and correlated correctly allow to understand the instability processes of the slope to give engineering solutions of intervention. The influence of morphogenesis, as a component of geomorphology, is evaluated in the stability conditions with numerical models, analyzing the stress state, the safety factor and the failure mechanisms for the structural, denudation and fluvial environments. When comparing the results with numerical models of slopes in a geostatic condition, it is concluded that the magnitude and direction of the stress on the slopes depends on the loading and unloading processes during their origin.
