Efficient System Reliability Analysis of Slope Stability in Spatially Variable Soils Using Monte Carlo Simulation
Monte Carlo simulation (MCS) provides a conceptually simple and robust method to evaluate the system reliability of slope stability, particularly in spatially variable soils. However, it suffers from a lack of efficiency at small probability levels, which are of great interest in geotechnical design practice. To address this problem, this paper develops a MCS-based approach for efficient evalua...

Random finite element method (RFEM) provides a rigorous tool to incorporate spatial variability of soil properties into reliability analysis and risk assessment of slope stability. However, it suffers from a common criticism of requiring extensive computational efforts and a lack of efficiency, particularly at small probability levels (e.g., slope failure probability Pf<0.001). To address this ...

متن کاملReliability Analysis of Slope Stability using Monte Carlo Simulation and Comparison with Deterministic Analysis
Traditional slope stability analysis is limited to the use of single valued parameters to analyze a slope‟s characteristics. Consequently, traditional analysis methods yield single valued estimates for factor of safety of a slope‟s stability. However, the inherent variability of the soil characteristics which affect slope stability indicates that the stability of a slope is a probabilistic rath...
