Abstract
Analysing the rock slope stability is a classical problem for geotechnical engineers. Recently, Hoek-Brown failure criterion has drawn more and more attention for rock slope stability assessments. It would be due to the fact that the nonlinearity is more pronounced at the low confining stresses that are operational in slope stability problems. However, it is still not popular yet. Therefore, in this study, slope stability analyses will be performed based on the generalised Hoek-Brown failure criterion using a commercial software, Phase 2. The Hoek-Brown strength parameters will be used as direct inputs in numerical simulations. In addition, two rock slope cases will be investigated. It is expected that better understandings of rock slope mechanisms can be obtained.
