Slope Stability Analysis in High-intensity Earthquake Zone by Strength Reduction Method

Chao Yu

Abstract

Through strength reduction of rock and soil parameters,the seismic slope stability factor during the process of earthquake was obtained by finite element software ANSYS.The dynamic characteristics of high slope was studied after analysis of lateral acceleration versus time of cross section.With examples of slope in high-intensity earthquake zone,the slope failure mechanism under the earthquake was analyzed;feasibility of the strength reduction dynamic analysis was validated.The study indicated that strength reduction analysis could determine slope stability in earthquake zone as well as the dynamic effect.
