TSLOPE3

TSLOPE3 is dynamic interactive slope stablility anaylsis tool.

• user can work in 2D (section mode) or 3D
• tools for creating simple 3D models from 2D section data
• automatic creation of arbitrary 2D sections from 3D model
• Spencer's method in 3D with rapid convergence based on force and moment equilbrium
• complex load cases and slope reinforcement can be modeled
• driving water pressures applied
• rock wedges can be added to a 3D project, with analysis as a rigid body or 3D columns
• arbitrary 3D failure surfaces can be defined, with analysis in 2D or 3D
• failure surfaces can be limited by layer boundaries
• search for critical failure surfaces in 2d and 3D
• back calculations to show range of strengths required for limiting equilibrium
• calculation of local factors of safety using Ordinary Method, to indicate areas where progressive failure may initiate
• calculation of critical yield acceleration, as well as pseudo static earthquake abalysis
