Abstract The evaluation of the stability of a slope, of an embankment or a dyke, is an important problem of applied soil mechanics. In the previous chapter this problem has been considered for a vertical slope in a purely cohesive material ( $$c>0$$ , $$\phi =0$$ ). As a preparation for the general case, which will be considered in the next chapter, this chapter will present some solutions for slopes of infinite extent, in a homogeneous frictional material, without cohesion ( $$c=0$$ , $$\phi >0$$ ).
