Assessment of the Reinforced Slope Stability Under Earthquake Loading
Abstract: Failure of the soil slopes by dynamic excitation is one of the most vital geotechnical earthquake hazards which may lead to serious destruction to the bridge abutments, dams, embankment, and structures resting on the slope. Moreover, due to deficient space available for the construction of slopes in urban areas, high and steep slope is constructed by geotextile reinforcement slopes. In this study, numerical modelling is made to study the behaviour …
