Derive an expression for the factor of safety against slope
instability for an infinite slope at an angle ?? from horizontal,
and with horizontal groundwater seepage emerging from the slope
(and then running off). The soil has a total unit weight ?? and the
strength is defined by ??′ and ??′. Assume drained conditions.
Define the potential failure plane as being located a distance “??”
from the slope surface measured vertically.
A theme ride vehicle is moving uphill at a constant speed. The
slope of the hill is 10○. The mass of the vehicle plus the riders
is 2000 kg. The vehicle is powered by a WLIM (Wheeled Linear
Induction Motor). The pole pitch of the motor is 0.5m. The friction
coefficient of the surface is 0.01. The primary circuit resistance
R1 is 0.5 Ω, and the secondary resistance referred to the primary
circuit R2’ is 1.0 Ω. The equivalent inductance...
Review the methods available for circular slip slope stability
analysis in terms of both total and effective stress and explain
the circumstances in which each method would be used.
Verbally derive the sufficiency condition that there is a
sufficient rate of growth in the money supply and credit to
establish and maintain the boom of the business cycle.
