Analysis of Landslide Stability Based on the Morgenstern-Price Method

Abstract

The landslide is a kind of natural disaster caused by slope instability. Due to its wide distribution, frequent occurrence, and damaging effects, many countries in the world suffer from it. Sichuan Province in China is a landslide-prone area since it locates in the seismic zone. In this paper, the Morgenstern-Price method is used to analyze the stability of a landslide in Sichuan Province, and heavy rainfall is also simulated to analyze the landslide stability under such conditions, which can provide assistance for geological disaster prevention in the future.
