Slope stability analysis
How to use this software to carry out stability analysis of two-dimensional slope (strength reduction method)
Hi @13137990154,
You can enter the Strength Reduction Factor (SRF) in the material properties dialogue, as demonstrated in the 2D Granular Flow simulation provided in this example: ( https://geoxsph.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/03/2D-Granular-flow-tutorial-1.pdf).
With GeoXPM, you can set up and run multiple problems with different SRF values and compare the results to identify when and where the failure plane forms, and also the post-failure behaviours (see the attached picture)
may i know how to plot as the attached picture that you attached before, the SRF.png?
@madelestin You can visualise GeoXPM outputs directly in ParaView.
For the image in SRF.png, I simply checked the accumulated plastic strain to identify the failure circle, took a screenshot, and repeated this for different SRF values. I then combined them manually.
Alternatively, you can import the output files from all SRF runs into ParaView to create an animation if preferred.
