In this area dump failures are reported due to the improper geometry of the dumps. Slope stability analysis by seven finite slope stability methods namely Morgenstern price method, Spencer method, Sarma method, Bishop method, Janbu method and ordinary method is done using GeoSlope software for the dump slope in Makardhokara site. At the obtained results are compared and presented. Keywords Geoslope, Slope Stability, Soil Nail, Finite Slope, Factor of Safety Introduction Slopes can be natural or man-made. These may be above ground level as embankments or below ground level as cuttings. Earth slopes are formed for railway embankments, earth dams, canal banks, levees, and at many other locations. Instability related issues in engineered as well as natural slopes are common challenges to both researchers and professionals. Instability may result due to rainfall, increase in groundwater table and change in stress conditions. Similarly, natural slopes that have been stable for many years may suddenly fail due to changes in geometry, external forces and loss of shear strength.

Supplementary Notes Project performed in cooperation with the Texas Department of Transportation: Project Title: Synthesis on Geosynthetic Reinforced Steep Slopes URL: 16. Abstract Geosynthetics provide a means to mechanically stabilize earth structures by improving strength through tensile reinforcement. When incorporating these polymeric materials in the application of stabilizing steep slopes, geosynthetic reinforcement can accommodate budgetary restrictions and alleviate space constraints. TxDOT currently has limited use of geosynthetics in steep slope construction. Therefore, a synthesis study of geosynthetic reinforced steep slopes has been conducted to enhance the present understanding of this technology. The study summarized the benefits and limitations of utilizing geosynthetic reinforcement and investigated current design and construction methods in order to determine best practices. Additionally, the cost effectiveness of geosynthetic reinforced steep slopes was examined.

Loukidis School of Civil Engineering, Purdue University, IN, USA P. Bandini Department of Civil Engineering, New Mexico State University, NM, USA R. Salgado School of Civil Engineering, Purdue University, IN, USA ABSTRACT Numerical limit analysis is used to determine rigorous lower and upper bounds to the horizontal critical pseudo-static seismic coeffi- cient kc required to cause collapse of two-dimensional slopes. Optimal bounding values of kc are calculated by applying linear pro- gramming techniques. Additionally, conventional displacement finite element analyses were performed for selected cases using the program ABAQUS. The values of kc and the slip surfaces obtained from the displacement finite element analyses and numerical limit analysis are in good agreement with those from both limit equilibrium methods and log-spiral upper bound method. A small number of finite element analyses using a non-associated flow rule showed that soil dilatancy influences the value of kc, and that limit analysis and limit equilibrium solutions may be slightly unconservative.

  • Assessment of Slope Stability
    MATEC Web of Conferences 107, 00031 (2017) DOI: 10.1051/matecconf/2017107000 31 DYN-WIND'2017 Assessment of slope stability Slavka Harabinova1,* and Eva Panulinova1 1TU Košice, Faculty of Civil Engineering, Vysokoškoľská 4, 042 00 Košice, Slovakia Abstract. The paper deals with the assessment of slope stability on the road II/595 near the village Zlatno before and after the landslide caused by floods in 2010. The calculation of factor of safety was made using GEO 5 software. For proposal comprehensive assessment and possible remedial work is necessary to know the geological conditions and choose the appropriate method for assessing slope stability. The critical factors of safety have been determined by Petterson, Bishop and Sarma Methods. After finding the most unfavorable slip surface a proposal of remediation measures has been made. The paper presents various solutions to ensure slope stability of the road. The most appropriate remedial action is Variant III - reinforced slope due to its greater factor of safety. 1 Introduction Currently, frequent flood events are taking place in our area. Floods are associated with rapid erosion processes, which involve the destruction of land resources and consequently may lead to landslides of drenched soil. In 2010, severe floods hit most of the territory of the Slovak Republic. It was the biggest flooding in the last 50 years. Climatic factors combined with the erosion activity watercourses and groundwater are major causes of slope deformations. In 2010, a result of exceptional rainfall and flood situation increased the number of slope deformations. Continuous rain caused significant elevations in almost all watercourses and floods.
