Analysis of engineering geology and stability of Malanwang Landslide
Landslide is the phenomenon that rock and soil mass of slope slips along the transfixed failure surface, which was destroyed by shear stress, with the reason that the shear stress in the sliding surfaces exceeds its shear strength. This paper takes Mayanwan Landslide for an example, used the Residual Thrust Force Method, the Janbu's Method and the Sarma's Method for stability calculation, based on interpreting the engineering geologic condition and natural environment of the research district and understanding the basic characteristics of the landslide, considering the rain and earthquake conditions.
A Method of Analysis of the Stability of Embankments Assuming Parallel Inter-Slice Forces
Synopsis A method of analysis is described for determining the factor of safety of an embankment against failure on a cylindrical slip surface. The analysis is in terms of effectivce stress and leads to two equa-tions of equilibrium, the first in respect of forces and the second in respect of moments. Using this method of analysis, the factors affecting the accuracy of Bishop's simplified method have been investigated. Charts have been obtained for three different values of the pore pressure coefficient (ru) which identify the position of the critical slip circle. A set of stability charts is also given. On decrit une methode d'analyse pour determiner le facteur de securite d'un remblai contre la rupture sur une surface de glissement cylindrique. L'analyse est faite d'apres la contrainte effective ett amene a deux equations d'equilibre, la premiere se rapportant aux forces et la deuxieme aux moments. En utilisant cette method d'analyse, on a etudie les facteurs qui affectent la precision de la methode sim...
The Meaning of Wisdom in James: Examination of a Hypothesis
The following essay is an attempt to examine the manner in which the writer of the Epistle of James uses the concept of Wisdom; and to study the suggestion that the way in which he uses it is more or less interchangeable with that in which other writers of the New Testament use the concept of the Holy Spirit.
