Abstract Slope Stability Models (SSMs) are valuable tools used as decision support in land
management to mitigate catastrophic effects caused by rainfall-induced shallow landslides …

Seismic stability analyses of soil slopes in the presence of weak interlayers are rather
challenging within the framework of plasticity theory, due to the construction of kinematically …

Realistic constitutive ground models are critical in the evaluation of soil‐structure interaction
problems and the assessment of key design parameters in the seismic analysis of …

Efficient evaluation of slope stability is a frontier in geo‐disaster prevention fields. While
many slope stability evaluation methods, ranging from deterministic to probabilistic, have …

We present a Lagrangian formulation for simulating the continuum hydrodynamics of dry
granular flows based on multiplicative elastoplasticity theory for finite deformation …

The stochastic analysis of unsaturated rainfall-induced slope instability has been studied by
many researchers. However, the applicability of random FEM (RFEM) has not been used …

In this work, the collapse conditions of shallow tunnel faces are studied using the Numerical
Limit Analysis (NLA) and the Material Point Method (MPM). A particular form (based on a …

This paper introduces a surface layer method for the analysis of slope stability using finite
elements. When stability of a slope is calculated using the strength reduction method, the …

The paper presents a method for reliability analysis of slopes in unsaturated soils.
Conditional random fields are simulated by consideration possible fluctuations of the …

Soil flow is involved in many earth surface processes such as debris flows and landslides. It
is a very challenging task to model this large deformational phenomenon because of the …
