This paper describes numerical studies on the dynamic behavior of experimental slope models, including various inclined weak layers. These studies were conducted by simulation of shaking table tests using the material point method (MPM), which allows seamless treatment of various considerations, from elastic behavior to discontinuous collapse behavior of slopes, on the basis of an elasto-plastic constitutive...
The regulatory guide for the seismic design of nuclear power reactor facilities in Japan was revised in 2006. The guide requires the facilities to be designed to withstand earthquakes, taking into consideration slope collapses that can be expected to occur around such facilities. Although these requirements were included in the previous edition of the guide, definite specifications are given in the...
