초록

This paper adopts the kinematic theorem of limit analysis to assess the seismic stability of a two-stage slope. The seismic effect is taken into account by using the pseudo-static approach. The failure mechanism for the slope is extended to include below-toe failure, toe failure and face failure. Validation of this approach is conducted by comparing the factor of safety with the data in the existing literatures. The stability charts are presented based on the graphical method for reading the factor of safety readily. Parametric study involving the effect of slope geometry, internal friction angle, seismic effect as well as depth coefficient on the stability of a two-stage slope is carried out. The critical failure surfaces with various parameters are plotted. The results obtained reveal the significant influence of slope geometry on the failure mechanism of a two-stage slope under static and seismic condition.
