In-Flight Excavation of Slopes with Potential Failure Planes

Khosravi, Mohammad Hossein / Takemura, Jiro / Pipatpongsa, Thirapong / Amini, Mehdi

The stability of an in-flight undercut slope with a potential failure plane was investigated under a centrifugal acceleration of $50 g$ . The experimental results confirmed the formation of passive arch action in the undercut slope and were found to be in good agreement with the results of $1 g$ physical model tests showing that the arching-type failure in undercut slopes is a scale-independent phenomenon. The maximum stable undercut span is compared with that in the theory developed by the authors, and the results are discussed.
