The slope stability calculation is quite time-consuming, which requires first selecting the correct method and then calculating the coefficient of stability using different formulas. It should also be noted that visualization of the analysis results requires a great deal of time, which is quite impractical. To solve this problem, many geotechnical computer programs have been created, which can be used to report slope stability reports in a split of a second. The most common geotechnical software in Georgia is GEO5 slope stability, which allows us to calculate slope stabilities very quickly and effectively with various methods and standards.

Tawaeli - Toboli is one of the road that often undergo landslide. Most of these roads are in a mountainous area with high steep slopes and poor soil conditions. The road conditions worsened, especially in rainy season resulting the citizen do not know anywhere that is prone to landslides such as in Km 16 to 17. The purpose of this study was to analyze slope stability using bioengineering methods, determine the shear strength of soil without plant roots and soil with plant roots and to determine the potential for landslides that will occur. Bioengineering is used to increase the strength of the soil, and stabilize slopes and reduce erosion on slopes. The slope stability calculation using the Bishop slice method. The calculating of safety factor analyzed using the Slope / W application and manually. Soil samples were taken from 3 (three) points and the soil strength parameters,  soil cohesion and friction angle, were obtained through laboratory testing. Tests were carried out using rootless and rooted soil samples. In addition, direct field observations were made to obtain slope angles and slope heights. The results showed that the parameters of soil shear strength, cohesion and friction angle increased with the presence of plant roots. The results of the slope stability analysis show that the conditions of the slope are stable at slope 1 (Km 16) and slope 3 (Km 17) with a safety factor greater than 1.5. While slope 2 (Km 16 +300) has the potential for landslides as a safety factor of less than 1.5. The use of bioengineering increases the safety factor to be greater than 1.5. The calculation of the value of the safety factor using the Slope / W program and the Bishop manual is not much different, but the calculation time with the Slope / W program is faster

Abstract Highwall mining machines have been used to recover retained coal at the toe of highwalls and endwalls over the past few decades. However, there has not been a universal method to evaluate the slope stability using highwall mining while maximizing the recovery rate. Based on the required service time of coal pillars, this study proposes the concept of the target time pillar strength. To obtain time-dependent parameters for the coal, time-dependent shear tests were performed on specimens from an open-cut mine in Inner Mongolia. The highwall mining length was divided into three categories based on discontinuous structural plane theory: goaf, yielding, and elastic zones. The three zones were considered to all have resistances against shear stress. The basal coal seam is likely to become weak due to weight from the overlying strata, which may change the slope failure mode from circular to sliding along the weak layer. Numerical modeling was used to study the influence of the overlying strata and target time strength on the yielding zone development at the coal pillar ribs. The coefficients of the three zones were determined and substituted into the Mohr-Coulomb equation to obtain the time-dependent shear strength parameters. Subsequently, the influence of highwall mining on the slope stability was evaluated using the rigid body-limit equilibrium method (LEM). The optimized coal pillar width is determined to maximize the recovery rate without compromising the slope stability.

Some aspects of seismic impact on the stability of massive seismogravitational solid masses are examined. An example of the slope stability calculation using separate accounting for seismic accelerations in blocks is shown. The influence of the relief on the change in seismic effects is considered.

The reservoir water level fluctuation is an important factor inducing the reaction of pore-water pressure, seepage and at last resulting in instability and failure of the slope. A typical homogeneous slope is conducted as an example in this paper, the seepage and stress coupling effect is considered, and the slope stability calculation and analysis are carried out by using the finite element stress method. The results demonstrate that the factor of safety increases with the reservoir water level rises, and then gradually changes from decrease to stabilization. It should be noted that the factor of safety decreases slightly during the initial stage of water level rising at the speed of 0.2 m/d, which the slope will probably lose its stability. On the other, the factor of safety changes from decrease to increase along with the reservoir water level drawdown, and then gradually tends to stabilization. There is a minimum factor of safety when the water level is at about 1/4 of the slope height, and the minimum factor of safety decreases with increasing drawdown speed, just as the factor of safety decreases from 0.83 to 0.73 when the drawdown speed is increased from 0.20 m/d to 5.0 m/d.

A survey of Canadian universities and consulting engineering firms was conducted to ascertain the present status of slope stability software usage in Canada. The results indicate that most universities have access to at least one slope stability computer program. However, there is limited usage of computer programs as a teaching tool at the undergraduate or graduate level. In general, the programs are poorly documented and not distributed. Consulting engineering firms indicate that more education on the relationship between the various methods of slices, on available software and its application to practical problems would be beneficial. The most commonly used procedures are the simplified Bishop method for circular failure surfaces and the Morgenstern–Price method for noncircular failure surfaces.Several well-documented slope stability computer programs are available to the geotechnical engineer at the cost of reproduction. The source for obtaining the programs is listed in the paper. Computer programs are available for all the commonly used methods of slices and the features of each program are also summarized in the paper.
