A mesh based partition of unity method, known as the manifold method, is used in simulating the evolution of a slope failure. The problem configuration consists of a simple slope that has pre-existing tensile cracks...

This site provides information as well as a downloadable demo version of a slope stability and reinforced soil analysis and design software. The software includes an analysis option which analyzes strata profile and...

This article, authored by Professor Stephen A. Nelson of Tulane University, focuses on many aspects of slope stability. Some of these factors include: the role of water, troublesome earth materials, triggering events,...
