Benchmark study of rock slope stability through Generalized Hoek-Brown criterion: case study of an open pit in Sudan

The non-linear Generalized Hoek-Brown (GHB) failure criterion for rock mass is widely accepted and has been applied in a large number of open pits slope designs. This paper proposes new equations for estimating the maximum confining stress from the (GHB) parameters and geometrical properties of the...
