Comparison study between traditional and finite element methods for slopes under heavy rainfall
In this paper, a comparison study has been carried out between the limit equilibrium (conventional) methods and finite element method of estimation factor of safety of slopes under the effect of rainfall. A case study is analyzed with the finite element method, and the results are compared with outc...
