Study of the Three-Dimensional Global Limit Equilibrium Method Applied to the Stability of Rock Slope

Article Preview

Abstract:

Amending the normal stress over the slip surface based on the stress field by numerical analysis, applying the three-dimensional global limit equilibrium method to the stability analysis of tension-slackened rock mass in the right bank of Yagen hydropower station. Stability analysis shows that if do not take any measures, the loose rock mass stability can cater to the Specification demand, but some small sliders is in the limit state under the water and earthquake condition, if use the cutting slope and unloading scheme, the whole loose rock mass and the all small sliders can meet the Specification standard stability requirements.
