State of the Art: Limit Equilibrium and Finite-Element Analysis of Slopes
TL;DR: In the past 25 years great strides have been made in the area of static stability and deformation analysis as discussed by the authors, and the widespread availability of microcomputers has brought about considerable change in the computational aspects of slope stability analysis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Slope stability analysis by strength reduction
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors compared the performance of the shear strength reduction technique with the method of slices for a homogeneous embankment and showed that the latter is more accurate than the former.

A Method of Analysis of the Stability of Embankments Assuming Parallel Inter-Slice Forces
TL;DR: In this paper, a method of analysis is described for determining the factor of safety of an embankment against failure on a cylindrical slip surface, and the analysis is in terms of effectivce stress and leads to two equa-tions of equilibrium, the first in respect of forces and the second inrespect of moments.

Probabilistic slope stability analysis by finite elements
D. V. Griffiths,Gordon A. Fenton +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the probability of failure of a cohesive slope using both simple and more advanced probabilistic analysis tools, and concluded that simplified probabilism, in which spatial variability is ignored by assuming perfect correlation, can lead to unconservative estimates of the failure probability.

Stability analysis of embankments and slopes
TL;DR: In this paper, a simple but accurate method of stability analysis of embankments and slopes is developed to determine the critical earthquake acceleration that is required to bring a mass of soil, bounded by a slip line of any shape and the free surface, to a state of limiting equilibrium.
