Abstract

This paper pertains to the incorporation of a genetic algorithm methodology for determining the critical slip surface and the corresponding factor of safety of soil slopes using inclined slice method. The analysis is formulated as a constrained optimization problem to solve the nonlinear equilibrium equations and finding the factor of safety and the critical slip surface. The sensitivity of GA optimization method is presented in terms of development of failure surface. Example problem is presented to demonstrate the efficiencies of the genetic algorithm approach. The results obtained by this method are compared with other traditional optimization technique.

이 논문에서는 사면 안정 해석시 경사 절편법을 이용하여 안전율을 구하며 유전자 알고리즘방법을 이용하여 한계파괴면을 결정하는 이론을 제안하였다. 해석방법에서는 한계 전단 파괴면과 안전율을 찾고 비선형 평형 방정식의 해를 구하기 위해 구속 최적화 문제로 간주하여 해석을 수행하였다. 유전자 알고리즘 방법의 효율성을 검증하기 위하여 예제를 논문에 포함하였다. 유전자 알고리즘 방법에 의하여 도출된 사면 안정 해석결과는 기존방법에 비하여 우수한 것으로 판명되었다.
