Abstract

From the study of shear strength reduction finite element methods(SSR-FEM),the static stability analysis of tailing dam was carried out by this method.The different D-P criterion was used to calculate the antiskiding stability safety factor of dam slope by the SSR-FEM and traditional limit equilibrium methods.The results showed that the failure surfaces under different D-P criterion were closed to classical method,and the safety factor from D-P3 criterion was much more closed to the one which was got from the Fellenius method.So,it is feasible to calculate the antiskiding stability safety factor of tailing dam by the SSR-FEM.Also,it indicates that the finite element method is suitable to simulate the complex section and non-linear material in practical engineering.
