The numerical simulation method of safe distance between concealed karst cave and tunnel based on shear strength reduction method safety factor catastrophe is proposed. The safety factor of different distance between concealed karst cave and tunnel can be obtained using strength reduction finite element method numerical calculation with the finite element solution non convergence as the standard rock damage, then compare the safety factor of different distance, the catastrophe of safety factor corresponding to the distance is the safe distance between concealed karst cave and tunnel, and the plastic zone of rock stratum between concealed karst cave and tunnel is reaching run-through state, which is verified by engineering example.

In the paper the problem of landslides in road engineering is discussed. An example is given of a landslide next to regional road No. 975 in Borowa. The analysed slope was modeled in the MIDAS GTS NX . The slope stability analysis and the FoS coefficient were carried out using the shear strength reduction method (SRM). In the next step a numerical analysis was carried out after the security measures were implemented. The results show the capability of numerical simulation programs.

The three-dimensional shear strength reduction method is used to evaluate the stability of an idealized slope stabilized with anchors, where the soil-anchor interaction is simulated by zero-thickness three-dimensional interface elements, and the effects of the direction angle, position, spacing on the slope stability are numerical studied. The results show that the reinforcing mechanisms of anchors in slopes are to increase the shearing resistance on the slip surface,and the failure mechanism, predicted by SSR, agrees well with the critical slip circle given by Bishop’s simplified method. The better stabilizing effects can be obtained when the anchors are installed with a small angle between the anchor and the horizontal direction, and slightly closer to the slope toe.
