Abstract

Two different approaches, i. e. iterative procedure and load-incremental procedure are developed for the analysis of progressive failure of slopes, based on the limit equilibrium frameworks. In the former approach, self-weight of slope material together with surface load, if any, are simultaneously applied and iterative calculations are used until convergent solution is reached. On the other hand, total load including the self-weight is divided into many incremental steps, in the latter approach, and with each load-incremental step, analysis is repeated up to the final loading condition. Both procedures define local safety factor at the base of each slice to consider progressive, local failure and its evolution. Application shows that either of the procedures captures the behavior of progressive failure of slopes.
