Application of the Finite Element Method to Slope Stability

Application of the Finite Element Method to Slope Stability

This document outlines the capabilities of the finite element method in the analysis of slope stability problems. A description of the constitutive laws of material behavior such as the Mohr-Coulomb failure criterion, and material properties input parameters, required to adequately model slope failure is given as well.
