Stability Analysis of a Multi-Layered Slope in an Open Pit Mine

The design of slopes in open pit mines requires an in-depth understanding of the ground behavior to predict the potential failure mechanism and to better determine the stabilization measures. This study compares the critical slip surface defined by the limit equilibrium method (LEM), the limit analy...
