This paper presents a probabilistic numerical approach for stability analysis of soil and rock slopes. The slope is divided into a family of inclined slices, and according to the upper bound theorem in plasticity theory, a work-energy balance equation is constructed for each soil/rock slice. Geotechnical parameters such as the cohesion, the friction angle and the pore pressure ratio etc. are modelled...
