Abstract:Based on the upper bound theorem of limit analysis (UBLA) combined with the pseudostatic methods, this paper elaborates on a calculated procedure for evaluating fissured slope stability under seismic conditions reinforced with prestressed anchor cables. An existing simple slope case is presented as a case study in this work. The comparison is given to verify that the solution derived from this study is correct and feasible. By means of a numerical optimization procedure, the critical location of the crack is d… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
