Keywords:
Geotextiles-reinforced slop, internal overpressure, finite element method, factor of safety.Abstract
The aim of this study is to analyze the stability of a slope reinforced by geotextiles, taking into account the allowable factor of safety and displacement. The slope stability analysis was carried out by the finite element method using PLAXIS 2D. In this study, two types of ordered modeling were carried out. First, the stability of the slope without any reinforcement was analyzed; the second modeling consisted in determining the length of the geotextile reinforcement taking into account the stability of the slope. The results of the present study indicate that geotextile reinforcement can have a positive effect on the stability of the embankment and helps to reduce the development of internal overpressure and augmentation of safety coefficient, the amelioration is estimed to 40 %.
