Reliability Analysis on Yuwangbian Slop Based on Monte-Carlo Simulation

Abstract:

Based on the Yuwangbian high loess slope, which is located in Xi'an Yanta District, the basic principle of Monte-Carlo method is presented. By means of geotechnical engineering and geotechnical environment emulation software Geostudio-slope/w and based on Morgenstern-Price slope stability analysis method, the reliability and stability of the slope are analyzed under different kinds of working condition. The stability factor, reliability index and failure probability under the corresponding working conditions has been obtained. The results coincide with the actual condition, which makes the Geostudio software combine with the Monte-Carlo method and provides reference for the reliability analysis of loess slope.
