Failure of Rock Slope with Heterogeneous Locked Patches: Insights from Numerical Modelling
Rock slope stability is commonly dominated by locked patches along a potential slip surface. How naturally heterogeneous locked patches of different properties affect the rock slope stability remains enigmatic. Here, we simulate a rock slope with two locked patches subjected to shear loading through...
