MODIFIED SUBSTITUTION METHOD FOR CIRCULAR SLIDING SLOPE STABILITY ANALYSIST UNDER STEADY-STATE SEEPAGE

Bulk density of substitution method is a common method for slope stability analysis. The equivalence relationship between the water loads taken as face loads and the body loads respectively that act on a circular sliding block under steady-state seepage was analyzed firstly, then based on that equivalence relationship, a modified substitution method for circular sliding slope stability analysis under steady-state seepage is proposed.
