Safety Margin of Slope Stability Using Common Deterministic Methods
Journal Title: International Journal of Modern Engineering Research (IJMER) - Year 2014, Vol 4, Issue 5
Abstract
The objective of this research was to develop a model for deterministic slope stability analysis. The study was performed through different methods of analysis and compared with Bishop simplified method, the variation of each input parameter ranged using traditional behavior equations to produce a distribution of the factor of safety verses the variables. A sensitivity analysis is then applied to the output factor of safety with each variable to select the slope design parameters with acceptable effect on factor of safety. To demonstrate the application of the deterministic methods developed during this paper, the methodology was applied to case study to present the effect of each variable on factor of safety, the study of slope failure was assumed to be circular slip surface .
