Increased shear strength in frictional soil

open access: yes, 2022
Limit equilibrium analysis (LEA) of slope stability is the main concept in evaluating existing structures and for designing of new ones. When doing a LEA cohesion c’ and friction angle φ’ are conventionally used for strength determination. Since LEA does not properly take consideration of factors contributing to increased shear strength in frictional ...
