Impact of Rock Mass Strength Anisotropy with Depth on Slope Stability Under Excavation Disturbance

In open-pit excavations, overburden rock mass is disturbed by processes like blasting and mechanical excavation, leading to a reduction in mechanical properties. Accounting for this disturbance is essential for ensuring slope stability, optimizing costs, and maintaining feasibility. The Hoek–Brown f...
