Abstract Random field Monte Carlo (MC) reliability analysis is a robust stochastic method to
determine the probability of failure. This method, however, requires a large number of …

The maintenance of safety and dependability in rail and road embankments is of utmost
importance in order to facilitate the smooth operation of transportation networks. This study …

Assessment of the seismic slope stability in terms of a factor of safety (FoS) is often
addressed using pseudo-static approaches neglecting material-induced failure and the role …

The use of probabilistic analysis (PA) of slopes as an effective method for evaluating the
uncertainty that is so pervasive in variables has become increasingly common in recent …

The issue of slope stability is one of the most important and yet most difficult geotechnical
problems. Assessing slope stability is particularly difficult because of the many uncertainties …

As China's photovoltaic (PV) sector experiences rapid growth, the availability of land
resources has become a pivotal policy focus, driving the need for comprehensive research …

The determination of the factor of safety (FoS) of slopes during seismic excitation can be
complex if the relevant effects of pore water pressure accumulation, nonlinear material …

The goaf slopes commonly found in China have serious stability problems. These areas
experience several landslides yearly, which results in casualties, property damage, and …

Effective exploration techniques during mechanized tunneling are of high importance in
order to prevent severe surface settlements as well as a damage of the tunnel boring …

In the assessment of slope stability, the uncertainty of soil properties affects directly the factor
of safety, which is the objective function to be minimized. Therefore, we propose an …
