Numerical Simulation of the Stability of a Cutting Slope and Study on Its Reinforcement Scheme
TL;DR: Zhang et al. as discussed by the authors analyzed the stability of the left side slope of the Shantou-Zhanjiang Expressway in different conditions (natural conditions, unsupported excavation conditions, rainstorm conditions, and reinforcement conditions) by using finite element software and showed that the slope was almost stable before excavation, and the safety factor of slope stability decreases due to excavation, so it is in an unstable state.

The analysis of the stability of general slip surfaces
TL;DR: In this paper, a method for statically determinating the shape of a slip surface is presented, and the assumptions necessary to make the problem statically determinate are discussed; the solution of the governing equations ensures that all equilibrium and boundary conditions are satisfied.
