.... The stability assessment utilised limit equilibrium (LE) with Slope/W, incorporating various commonly used slip surface searching options, and the finite-element method (FEM) with Plaxis2D under static peak and post-liquefaction conditions. The results reveal a significant variation in the factor of safety (FoS...

... soft ground often require the use of reinforcement to produce an economic design whilst ensuring stability during construction. The amount of reinforcement is dependent on the geometr y of the embankment and the strength characteristics of both the embankment and the subsoil. Limit equilibrium methods...
