A new double reduction method for slope stability analysis

The core of strength reduction method(SRM) involves finding a critical strength curve that happens to make the slope globally fail and a definition of factor of safety(FOS). A new double reduction method, including a detailed calculation procedure and a definition of FOS for slope stability was developed based on the understanding of SRM. When constructing the new definition of FOS, efforts were made to make sure that it has concise physical meanings and fully reflects the shear strength of the slope. Two examples, slopes A and B with the slope angles of 63° and 34° respectively, were given to verify the method presented. It is found that, for these two slopes, the FOSs from original strength reduction method are respectively 1.5% and 38% higher than those from double reduction method. It is also found that the double reduction method predicts a deeper potential slide line and a larger slide mass. These results show that on one hand, the double reduction method is comparative to the traditional methods and is reasonable, and on the other hand, the original strength reduction method may overestimate the safety of a slope. The method presented is advised to be considered as an additional option in the practical slope stability evaluations although more useful experience is required.

Comprehensive safety factor of roof in goaf underdeep high stress

The safety factor of roof under deep high stress is a quantitative index for evaluating roof stability.Based on the failure mode of surrounding rock of stope roof,the mechanics model of goaf roof is constructed,and the internal force of roof is deduced by the theory of hingeless arch.The calculation method of roof safety factor(K)under the environment of deep mining is proposed in view of compression failure and shear failure of roof.The calculation formulas of shear safety factor(K1),compression safety factor(K2)and comprehensive safety factor(K)of roof are given.The influence of stope span and roof thickness on roof stability is considered in this paper.The results show that when the roof thickness remains constant,the roof safety factor decreases with the increasing of the stope span;when the stope span remains constant,the roof safety factor increases with the increasing of the roof thickness.The deep mining example shows that when the stope span is 30 m and the roof thickness is 10 m,the roof comprehensive safety factor is 1.12,which indicates the roof is in a stable state.

Strength reduction method for slope based on a ubiquitous-joint criterion and its application

In order to expand the application of strength reduction methods with the ubiquitous-joint criterion, the corresponding program is compiled using FLAC3D software. A procedure for strength reduction in the ubiquitous-joint criterion is proposed to study the safety factor of slopes as well as the relationships of the bedding plane inclination angle β and the safety factor F. The results show that： 1） for the bedding rock slope, the various failure modes cause different variations of the safety factor F; 2） a bed- ding rock slope can be divided into two types by the angle between the bedding plane inclination and slope surface inclination a; when a_〈45~, the bedding slope can be strictly defined as the subsequent bedding rock slope; when 45°〈α〈90°, the bedding slope is defined as an oblique bedding slope; 3） for bedding rock slopes, the safety factor increases with an increase in a; for inverse bed- ding slopes, when the bedding plane inclination angle fl is small, the safety factor F of the slope increases at first, then decreases with an increase in a; when β is large, the safety factor F increases with an increase in α.

Back analysis of general slope under earthquake forces using upper bound theorem

Long time monitoring is acquired to obtain the displacement data for displacement-based geotechnical material back analysis, and these data are hard to be measured under some special condition, such as earthquake. For a simple homogeneous slope, the position of a critical failure surface is determined by value of c/tan ~b. Utilizing upper bound theorem of limit analysis, the external work rate and internal energy for normal slope under earthquake forces are given, and the formula for minimum safety factor is derived. On this basis, the equation of slip surface and the surface depth of a given position are solved. In this way, the strength parameter can be analyzed by known slip surface depth. For practical use, the surface depth for a given slope under varying strength parameter is presented. Finally, two examples are given to show its simplicity and effectiveness.

Numerical simulation of vegetated mine dump slope with reference to small plants

The present paper discusses the effects of small plants on the dump mass reinforcement and slope stability.The roots of smaller plants(such as grasses and shrubs)do not go deep.However,they stabilize the slope by binding the upper layer of dump slope.Shear strength of the dump mass with and without root reinforcement is determined by laboratory shear box instrument.The increased cohesion(apparent cohesion)of upper layer of the dump mass due to plants is determined by fabricated shear box.The kinetic behavior of the dump has been investigated using the FLAC software.The factor of safety has been calculated in order to determine the possible effect of small plants on the stability of the dump slope.It is observed that the small plants do not significantly improve the factor of safety(FOS)of slope.However,it could be useful for early stabilization.The grasses quickly bind the upper surface,whereas shrubs too immensely strengthen the stability of the dump in the initial stage.

Upper bound analysis of slope stability with nonlinear failure criterion based on strength reduction technique

Based on the upper bound limit analysis theorem and the shear strength reduction technique, the equation for expressing critical limit-equilibrium state was employed to define the safety factor of a given slope and its corresponding critical failure mechanism by means of the kinematical approach of limit analysis theory. The nonlinear shear strength parameters were treated as variable parameters and a kinematically admissible failure mechanism was considered for calculation schemes. The iterative optimization method was adopted to obtain the safety factors. Case study and comparative analysis show that solutions presented here agree with available predictions when nonlinear criterion reduces to linear criterion, and the validity of present method could be illuminated. From the numerical results, it can also be seen that nonlinear parameter rn, slope foot gradient ,β, height of slope H, slope top gradient a and soil bulk density γ have significant effects on the safety factor of the slope.

Relationship between critical seismic acceleration coefficient and static factor of safety of 3D slopes

Many analytical methods have been adopted to estimate the slope stability by providing various stability numbers,e.g.static safety of factor(static FoS)or the critical seismic acceleration coefficient,while little attention has been given to the relationship between the slope stability numbers and the critical seismic acceleration coefficient.This study aims to investigate the relationship between the static FoS and the critical seismic acceleration coefficient of soil slopes in the framework of the upper-bound limit analysis.Based on the 3D rotational failure mechanism,the critical seismic acceleration coefficient using the pseudo-static method and the static FoS using the strength reduction technique are first determined.Then,the relationship between the static FoS and the critical seismic acceleration coefficient is presented under considering the slope angleβ,the frictional angleφ,and the dimensionless coefficients B/H and c/γH.Finally,a fitting formula between the static FoS and the critical seismic acceleration coefficient is proposed and validated by analytical and numerical results.
