...S. Xiao; H. Shi; T. Dai; G. He The confining effect of geosynthetics renders stability analysis of embankments on geosynthetic-encased stone columns (GESCs) distinct from conventional columns. A simplified method addressing this issue is practically important. This study proposes such a method...

... assumed. The limit equilibrium approach is the oldest and most widely used method for slope stability analysis in geotechnical engineering practice. In the limit equilibrium procedure for slope stability, the soil mass inside the failure surface is divided into a number of vertical slices...

...C.-C. Huang; K. Matsushima; Y. Mohri; F. Tatsuoka A limit-equilibrium-based stability analysis method was developed to simulate the stability of unreinforced sand slopes and geosynthetic-reinforced sand slopes that had been stabilized with soil bags stacked on the slope face. The stability...

... Stability analysis Internal and interface shear strengths of geosynthetic clay liners (GCLs) are needed for static and seismic stability analyses in the design of waste containment facilities and other facilities that incorporate these materials as hydraulic barriers. Particular attention is often...

...P.V. Long; D.T. Bergado; A.S. Balasubramaniam General solutions are developed for the rotational stability analysis of an embankment with and without reinforcement constructed on soft ground that has an undrained shear strength varying with depth. The general cases of an embankment having a berm...
