Spatial variability of soil properties was rarely taken into account directly in traditional slope
stability analyses, rather some “average” or suitably “pessimistic” properties are assumed to …

The probabilistic bearing capacity of the strip footing placed near a two-layered cohesive
soil slope is evaluated using random adaptive finite element limit analysis with anisotropic …

Soil is a basic geomaterial in the geotechnical and geological engineering. It has been
widely realized that there exists inherent spatial variability in the soil parameters for …

Critical slip surface (CSS) of slopes is useful information in system reliability analyses and
risk assessments of slopes. This paper investigates the effect of spatial variability of shear …

Reliability analysis of slope considering the spatial variability of soil properties may be
subjected to the curse of high dimensionality, which leads to the traditional slope reliability …

In natural slopes, apart from isotropic and transversely anisotropic soil fabric, rotated
anisotropic soil fabric is also commonly observed due to deposition and weathering …

This study aims to extend the multivariate adaptive regression splines (MARS)‒Monte Carlo
simulation (MCS) method for reliability analysis of slopes in spatially variable soils. This …

This paper describes the implementation of a multi-approach algorithm for the spatial and
temporal prediction of soil slips over large areas, based on a simplified physically-based …

Random field theory has become a very popular approach for probabilistic analysis of earth
dams. This study performs a stochastic analysis of seepage through an embankment dam to …

The stability of earth-rock dam slope has always been the focus of engineers. The existing
dam slope reinforcement measures mainly include anchor rods, anchor cables, soil nails …
