Slope Stability Analysis with Finite Element Method

Jie Qun Liu, Jin Long Liu

Open publisher page 4 citations

Abstract

A slope is studied with limiting equilibrium method and finite element method comparatively. It is found that the results of the two methods are almost the same. The distribution of principal stress, maximal plastic strain, plastic zone, lateral displacement, vertical settlement and incremental of displacement can be investigated by FEM effectively, which make it easy to expediently choose the method of slope reinforcement and the position of strengthening.
