[ 1 ] - Earthquake Induced Permanent Displacement of Slopes: a Numerical Study (TECHNICAL NOTE)

The conventional method to evaluate earthquake induced permanent deformations of slopes is the one proposed by Newmark. In this paper, permanent displacement of slopes is studied using a combination of distinct element and finite difference methods and the results of these numerical evaluations are compared with those of the Newmark's approach. Several parameters involved, including peak ground...
