Stability Analysis of a Two-Layered Slope with Cracks by Finite Element Limit Analysis

In this study, to support slope stability estimating engineering, the stability of a slope with cracks lying on two-layered slopes was investigated by a self-developed adaptive element limit analysis (AFELA) code. Upper bound (UB) and lower bound (LB) results of soil additional gravity factor SF wit...
