Determining the Critical Slip Surface of Slope by Vector Sum Method Based on Strength Reduction Definition

Slope-stability assessment involves the location of the critical slip surface and the corresponding factor of safety (FOS). Considering force-vector characteristics, the vector sum method was further studied based on the strength reduction definition of the FOS and stress field of slope, and the FOS...
