Article Preview

Abstract:

An analysis on safety factor of slope through c - φ reduction algorithm by finite elements method is presented. When the system reaches instability, the numerical non-convergence occurs simultaneously. The safety factor is then obtained by c φ reduction algorithm. This paper, which combines with the actual situation of Jinduicheng open pit mine, analysis the stability of the limit height of the dump based on strength reduction of finite element method. And the value of slope safety factor is 1.25 to 1.30. The results show that calculating safety factors of the slope by ANSYS is in full conformity with the basic requirement of safety. That means, the dump is stable, which can reduce the production costs and benefit the enterprise.
