Slope Stability Analysis Using LEM and FEM Methods

Understand the results of slope stability analysis and the different methods used to get those results.

In every slope stability problem, engineers should be able to decide what is the best approach and which software to use to get the best results. The decision is based on the complexity of the models and the application. This material provides the basics of different methods of slope stability analysis and the application with different examples. Slope stability analysis is critical knowledge for geotechnical engineers. The advanced probabilistic slope stability analysis will also be discussed. The Rocscience software packages will be used in this material. Rocscience is the world leader of 2D and 3D software packages in Civil Engineering and Mining.
