Research on the coupling effect of the composite slope geometrical parameters
Purpose. To analyze the coupling effect between composite slope geometrical parameters. Methods. The slope angle and excavation depth are coupled with load which is waste dump in this case. Several models were created and analyzed to capture their coupling effect and interactions using FLAC/Slope. Findings. When the slope angle and excavation depth are coupled with a load such as that of a waste dump, the factor of safety decreases. But a suitable dumping position can prove vital to enhancing stability. The primary cause of this phenome-non is that the stresses induced by the waste dump decrease as the dump is moved away from the crest of the slope and the stress induced within the zone of active wedge beneath the dump reduces on the reference slip plane. Hence, it can be said that the position of the waste dump in the formation of a composite slope plays a key role in enhancing stability. Factor of safety have the same influence pattern for all parameters induced by stress as that of influence rule. The results obtained from the finite element stress analysis are the same with those obtained for the slope stability analysis. Originality. The current research presents for the first time the coupling effect of the composite slope geometrical parameters and the results of finite element stress analysis, which are similar to those of slope stability analysis. Practical implications. The current research results can be used to effectively analyze and design the composite slopes in soft rocks specially in surface mines.
