| Description | In the analysis of involving polygonal-shaped surface rock slope stability, the “Equivalent K Method” can be used. It is common to assume that adjacent blocks are separated by a vertical rupture surface, which lies on two inclined discontinuity surfaces. However, this assumption lacks theoretical rigour. Following the principle of rockslide stability, the authors took the dips of rupture planes as design variables and considered the overall safety factor as the objective function. The authors tried to find out the minimum safety factor using the complex method. The results show that the overall safety factor K could be minimum when the rupture surface is vertical for most conditions, especially when the shear strengths of adjacent slip surfaces are quite close to each other. These results show that the above commonly accepted assumption in practice is reasonable to some extent. Book Name: Frontiers of Rock Mechanics and Sustainable Development in the 21st Century |
