One of the most important instabilities of rock slopes is toppling failure. Among the types of
toppling failure, block-flexural failures are more common instability which occurs in nature. In …

Block-flexure is the most common mode of toppling failure in natural and excavated rock
slopes. In such failure, some rock blocks break due to tensile stresses and some overturn …

Flexural toppling is a quite complex and common failure mode of anti-dip bedding rock
slopes (ABRSs), since it involves not only deformation of the intact rock but also sliding or …

Block-flexure is the commonest mode of toppling failure and can be frequently encountered
in anti-inclined rock slopes. In this work, the failure mechanism of block–flexure toppling …

A conventional instability of rock slopes in layer rock strata is flexural toppling, which occurs
due to bending stresses. The stability analysis of flexural toppling failure has been studied …

Block-flexure is the most common type of toppling failure in rock slopes. In this case, some
rock blocks fail due to tensile bending stresses and some overturn under their own weights …

Flexural toppling failure is a common failure mode of natural and artificial rock slopes, which
has caused serious damage to human life and property. In this work, an advanced numerical …

Block-flexure toppling failure is frequently encountered in rock slopes. In this paper, we first
proposed two theoretical models to calculate the factor of safety against block-flexure …

In layered and blocky rock slopes, toppling failure is a common mode of instability that may
occur in mining engineering. If this type of slope failure occurs as a consequence of another …

In blocky and layered rock slopes, toppling failure is a conventional type of instability which
may occur in mining and civil engineering. If this kind of slope failure happens as a …
