Seismic Slope Stability: A Comparison Study of Empirical Predictive Methods with the Finite Element Method

This study evaluates the seismically induced displacements of a slope using the Finite Element Method (FEM) in comparison to the results of twelve empirical predictive approaches. First, the existing methods to analyze the stability of slopes subjected to seismic loads are presented and their capabi...
