Variational displacement method for geosynthetically reinforced slope stability analysis: II. Global stability
This paper presents the global stability analysis of geosynthetically reinforced slopes. It is a development of the French 'displacement method' (Gourc at al., 1986) for geosynthetically reinforced slope stability analysis. The global stability analysis requires the determination of the reinforcement tensions, which is presented in a companion paper (Lemonnier et al., 1998). In this paper, the variational limit equilibrium method, formulated by Baker and Garber (1977) in the case of unreinforced slopes, is applied to the case of reinforced slopes. This variational analysis has shown that the results obtained by Baker and Garber are still valid in the present case. A parametric study showing the influence of different geometrical parameters on the design is presented and discussed. These results are compared with those of the original 'displacement method', in order to show the improvement of the method.
