Abstract EN
In the strict framework of limit analysis, an analytical approach is derived to obtain the upper bound solutions for three-dimensional inhomogeneous slopes in clays under undrained conditions.
Undrained strength profiles increasing linearly with depth below the crest of the slope and below the outline surface of the slope are assumed representative of cut slopes and natural slopes, respectively.
Stability charts are produced for the cut slopes and the natural slopes under both static and pseudostatic seismic loading conditions.
The presented charts are convenient to assess the preliminary and short-term stability for 3D slopes in practical applications, such as rapid excavation or buildup of embankments and slopes subjected to earthquakes.
Compared with the available results from the finite element limit analysis method, a better estimate of the slope safety is obtained from the analytical approach.
