Probabilistic Slope Stability Analysis: A Case Study
Huvaj Sarıhan, Nejan (2018-10-01)
Probabilistic slope stability analyses are becoming more and more popular to evaluate the safety level of slopes and associated risk and reliability, especially in the recent years. The probabilistic approach can take into account the uncertainties and natural variability in material properties, as well as in environmental factors, by using various statistical distribution functions (such as normal, lognormal etc.) for random variables. It is already noted by various researchers that, a slope with a determi...
Probabilistic Slope Stability Analyses: Effects of the Coefficient of Variation and the Cross-Correlation of Shear Strength Parameters
Oğuz, Emir Ahmet; Yalçın, Yağızer ; Huvaj Sarıhan, Nejan (2017-03-15)
The assessment of the safety level of natural slopes, road cuts, embankments and levees require consideration of uncertainties and variability in material properties. In this study, for a number of slope geometries, including a real-life landslide case, probability of failure (PF) and the most critical failure surface are investigated with and without cross-correlation of shear strength properties. Slopes having different traditionally-defined factor of safety (FS) levels are studied. The uncertainty of soi...
Probabilistic Slope Stability Analyses Using Limit Equilibrium and Finite Element Methods
Akbas, Burak; Huvaj Sarıhan, Nejan (2015-10-16)
This paper compares the results of different probabilistic approaches and emphasizes the necessity of probabilistic analyses in slope stability studies. To do that, Limit Equilibrium Method (LEM) and Finite Element Method (FEM) are utilized and their outputs are compared in terms of probability of failure (PF), reliability index (RI), factor of safety (FS) and the failure surface. Lastly, concept of Random Finite Element Method (RFEM) is studied and effects of spatial correlation distance are investigated.
Probabilistic solution to two-dimensional stochastic solute transport model by the Fokker-Planck equation approach
Tu, Tongbi; Ercan, Ali; Kavvas, M. Levent (2020-01-01)
The study of solute transport in rivers is of environmental significance, since solute transported in river flows may affect the river water quality conditions. Solute transport in natural flows is a challenging process to be investigated, given natural flows usually indicate uncertainty in space and time. Two-dimensional models are more preferable to one-dimensional models, especially when the underlying flow field is complex. In this study, a stochastic horizontally two-dimensional solute transport model ...
