Determining the Critical Slip Surface of Three-Dimensional Soil Slopes from the Stress Fields Solved Using the Finite Element Method
The slope stability problem is an important issue for the safety of human beings and structures. The stability analysis of the three-dimensional (3D) slope is essential to prevent landslides, but the most important and difficult problem is how to determine the 3D critical slip surface with the minim...
