This study aimed to investigate the stability of multi-stage drained and undrained slopes
considering the spatial variability in soil properties. A bivariate random field was adopted to …

This paper considers probabilistic slope stability analysis using the Random Finite Element
Method (RFEM) combined with processes to determine the level of similarity between …

The use of optimization methods in geotechnics dates back to the 1950s. They were used in
slope stability analysis (Bishop) and evolved to a wide range of applications in ground …

The paper presents an investigation of riverbank stability at the estuary area of Muaro Kualo
Segment, Muara Bangkahulu River in Bengkulu, Indonesia. This area had experienced …

A conical slope is widely used in many constructions of in situ piles, piers, footings, mat
foundations, raft foundations, energy storages, or water tanks since this unsupported …

Probabilistic slope stability analyses are often preferable to deterministic methods when
soils are inherently heterogeneous, or the reliability of geotechnical parameters is largely …

Previous studies in the field of slope stability mostly concentrate on the calculation of the
safety factor, while critical slip line recognition and extraction are rarely noticed. Since the …

Due to the spatial variability of material characterisations in deep and large scale
excavations, stability assessment is often a challenging task. Numerous slope stability …

The stability of slopes directly affects human lives, the environment, and the economy.
Inaccurate geological profiles within numerical slope stability models can lead to potentially …

An evaluation of slope stability using the finite element method is often performed as a
complementary analysis to the plastic deformation analysis. The slope stability is typically …
