line-segments critical slip surface in earth slopes using an optimization method

LINE-SEGMENTS CRITICAL SLIP SURFACE IN EARTH SLOPES USING AN OPTIMIZATION METHOD

In this paper the factor of safety (FS) and critical line-segments slip surface obtained by the Alternating Variable Local Gradient (AVLG) optimization method was presented as a new topic in 2D. Results revealed that the percentage of reduction in the FS obtained by switching from a circular shape to line segments was higher with the AVLG method than other methods. The 2D-AVLG optimization meth...

A Rapid Optimization Method for Slip Surface in Earth Slopes Using Genetic Algorithm

This paper introduces an accurate, fast, and applicable method for optimization of slip surfaces in earth slopes. Using Genetic Algorithm (GA), which is one of the modern and non-classic optimization methods, in conjunction with the well -known Bishop applied method, the optimum slip surface in an earth slope is investigated and its corresponding lowest safety factor is determined. Investigati...

use of line segments slip surface for optimized design of piles in stabilization of the earth slopes

stabilization of earth slopes with various proposed methods is one of the important concerns of geotechnical engineering. in this practice, despite numerous developments, design conservativeness and high costs of stabilization are the issues yet to be addressed. this paper not only deals with pile location optimization but also studies the effects of the pile length by using line segments slip ...
