Acoustic emission (AE) monitoring has become an optional technology to quantify slope deformation. However, there are still challenges in developing generic AE interpretation strategies. Dynamics and kinematics models are two physical methods for analysing slope stability, which appear to improve the interpretability of AE monitoring data.

This paper is concerned with imaging techniques for mapping and locating underground pipeline leakage. Ground surface vibrations induced by the propagating axisymmetric wave can be measured by an array of acoustic/vibration sensors, with the extraction of magnitude information used to determine the position of leak source. A method of connected graph traversal is incorporated into the vibroacoustic technique to obtain the spatial image with better accuracy compared to the conventional magnitude contour plot.
