Embankment basal stability analysis using shear strength reduction finite element method
The stability evaluation of the slope commonly uses limit equilibrium methods, for example, Fellenius’ method in Japan. The limit equilibrium methods have two limitations. (1) It is necessary to divide the sliding mass into slices, and to set up some additional equations to make the problem statically determinate. (2) It is necessary to search sliding surface with a minimum safety factor. Shear...
متن کاملThe effect of anisotropy and heterogeneity of soils on slopes stability using numerical method in undrained condition
Naturally formation of soil deposits leads to anisotropy and heterogeneity in their properties. The aim of this study is modeling of soil having anisotropic and heterogeneous strength using finite difference method to estimate the effect of these on slope stability in undrained condition. In this study the soil cohesion is considered as an anisotropic and heterogeneous variable and assumed to h...
متن کاملStudying the effect of inherent anisotropy on undrained behavior of sand-silt mixtures
In some situations, dams need to be built on non-rock alluvial grounds such as sand and sand-silt deposits. Therefore, undrained behavior and strength of silty sands are of great importance. One of the critical factors in studying the behavior of sand-silt mixtures is inherent anisotropy, a natural soil characteristic that depends on its texture and is independent of the soil's initial stress s...
متن کاملThermal Stability Analysis under Embankment with Asphalt Pavement and Cement Pavement in Permafrost Regions
The permafrost degradation is the fundamental cause generating embankment diseases and pavement diseases in permafrost region while the permafrost degradation is related with temperature. Based on the field monitoring results of ground temperature along G214 Highway in high temperature permafrost regions, both the ground temperatures in superficial layer and the annual average temperatures unde...
متن کاملStability of Undrained Deformation of Fluid-saturated Geo-materials
The presence of pore fluids in geomaterials can alter deformation processes and facilitate or delay material failure. Dilation/contraction of geomaterials in the course of inelastic undrained deformation causes a reduction/increase in pore pressure altering the effective compressive stress. This results in an increase/decrease in shear stress that can be sustained by the material over the corre...
