<p>Since the 1930s, the limit equilibrium (LE) approach has been used to analyse slopes. This approach makes use of a number of differing analysis methods depending on the type of problem (circular vs non-circular) to be solved and the required accuracy of ...

Conventional slope stability analysis uses various Limit Equilibrium (LE) methods to determine the minimum factor of safety and its associated critical failure mechanism. These methods frequently assume that collapse will follow a particular assumed geometry, ...

<p>The evolutions of practices of seismic slope stability analysis of earth embankment/dam are discussed in this paper. The basic concepts of various methods, salient features, advantages and limitations of each of them are elucidate. Methods for both stability ...

<p>In this paper the slope stability of Aydoghmoosh earth dam situated in the north west of Iran is evaluated by various methods of limit equilibrium, finite element and finite difference. Among numerous limit equilibrium methods, Simplified Bishop, Janbu ...

The purpose of this project was to demonstrate the capabilities of mobile devices for advanced computation and analysis. bSLOPE, is a slope stability code adapted for iOS and for iPad using a new computational engine based on the work of Tabarroki (Tabarroki ...

<p>Since 1930, the analysis of slope stability is done according to the limit equilibrium approach. Several methods were developed of which certain remain applicable because of their simplicity. However, major disadvantages of these methods are (1) they do ...

<p>Analysis of slope stability is carried out to minimize the occurrence of slope failures and landslides. Slopes along the highway are highly susceptible to slope failure and thus landslides. Engineers must therefore give serious consideration before any ...

<p>Presently, due to ever-increasing demand of minerals for the country, it is very much required to have the opencast mines at a greater depth. Increasing depth also increased the severity of slope stability problems of the opencast mines. Unlike the previous ...

<p>One of the most common ways to stabilize the slope is to use the row of drilled shaft. The goal of this investigation is to introduce applicable methodology to calculate the factors of safety and force, on the shaft, in the static condition. By using the ...

The stability of the excavation face of shallow tunnels excavated in difficult ground conditions is currently a relevant problem in the sector for tunnelling and mining. Even though face-reinforcement interventions with fibreglass dowels have proved to be ...
