...G. Lei; D. Su; C. Li This study presents analytical solutions for head-anchored stabilising piles embedded in a two-layer landslide. The landslide consists of a sliding soil layer with either a constant or linearly increasing profile of limiting pile–soil contacting pressure, and a stable, stiffer...
