Ponts et charpentes Résumé : Most slope stability analyses have employed limit equilibrium methods (LEMs) or the finite-element method (FEM) as the standard approach. However, slope instability is often accompanied by discontinuous failure of the soil, which cannot be modelled by either LEMs or FEM. To overcome this limitation, this paper presents an extension of the smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) method to evaluate the stability of a slope, and to simulate the post-failure behaviour of soil. For the slope stability analysis, the shear strength reduction technique with a modified failure criterion for distinguishing convergent from non-convergent solutions is applied to estimate the safety factor of a slope, and the critical slip surface is determined from a contour plot of accumulated plastic strain. To take the pore water pressure into account, a new SPH formulation for soil motion is developed. It is suggested that this equation can be applied to further developments of SPH for saturated soil. As an application of the proposed method, several smoothed particle slope stability analyses and corresponding slope failure simulations are presented, and compared with other solutions. The results show good agreements with other methods in terms of the safety factor and the critical slip surface. As compared with such traditional methods, however, an advantage of SPH is that it can simulate large deformation and post-failure of soil, and can thereby treat a wide range of applications in computational geomechanics, especially those that include large deformation and failure of geomaterials.
