Revision of effective-stress method of slices / G. J. W. King in Géotechnique, Vol. 39 N°3 (Septembre 1989) 

Public ISBD [article]  in Géotechnique > Vol. 39 N°3 (Septembre 1989) . - pp. 497 –502 Titre : Revision of effective-stress method of slices Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : G. J. W. King, Auteur Année de publication : 2007 Article en page(s) : pp. 497 –502 Note générale : Génie Civil Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Seepage  Stability  Groundwater Résumé : The classical method of slices is reviewed and shown to have serious deficiencies with respect to its application to the effective-stress analysis of slopes. A revised approach is developed by considering uniform flow through a slice. This approach is shown to cater for the combined influence of buoyancy and seepage forces and to be consistent with the well-known solutions to two special cases. An approximate solution is proposed for the general situation in which flow through the slices is not uniform.
