A REVIEW PAPER ON STABILITY OF SLOPES ANALYSIS AND METHODS
Keywords:
Slope Stability, Limit Equilibrium, Numerical Methods, Limit Analysis, factor of safetyAbstract
Due to the problems of slope stability many alternative methods are introduced to ensure the safety of
slopes. It can be done by determining the factor of safety against failure by sliding for a given slope. All these methods
are different from each other in terms of their simplification and accuracy. In this paper the current methods for slope
stability analysis are discussed in detail by the author. Following methods for slope stability discussed below: limit
equilibrium methods, numerical analysis method, limit analysis method.
