Abstract: The progressive failure of slopes is often induced by drawdown and strain-softening of the soil. Thus, the stability level of a strain-softening slope under drawdown conditions should be evaluated while considering progressive failure. A simplified… read more here.

Abstract: Abstract Stability analysis of strain-softening slopes is carried out using the shear strength reduction method and Mohr-Coulomb model with degrading cohesion and friction angle. The effect of strain-softening behavior on the slope factor of safety… read more here.
