Seismic Stability Analysis of High-Fill Embankment Qian Su1, a,Jian Zhang1, b*,Bao Liu1, c,Licai Zhang1, d 1School of Civil Engineering, Southwest Jiaotong University, Chengdu, Sichuan, 610031, China asuqian@126.com, bswjtuzhangjian@163.com, cliubao12398@126.com, d18382405892@163.com Keywords:Subgrade engineering, High-fill embankment, Seismic stability analysis Abstract: Three problems remained to be solved in the analysis of the seismic stability of high-fill embankment:the pseudo-static method was defective, the embankment damage model was not clear, and the stability evaluation index wasstill to be discussed.
Therefore, on the one hand it is difficult-to-operate to use the safety factor to evaluate the stability of the embankment; on the other hand it is meaning clear and convenient for engineering application to use the permanent displacement method.Therefore, it is proposed to use the permanent displacement as the evaluation index.
