Distribution Property of Shear Strength Parameters of Q2 and Q3 Loess in Northwest China and Its Application in Reliability Analysis of Natural and Filled Slopes
Abstract:Geological materials have randomness in nature. Statistical analysis can help revealing the variation pattern of the material parameters and the reliability of the slope. In this paper, the probability distribution and variability of shear strength parameters of typical Q2 and Q3 loess in Northwest China were statistically analysed using the collected geological survey data in Yan`an, Shaanxi Province. Resulting probability properties were applied to the reliability analysis for the natural and fill slope in l… Show more
