Slope Stability Analysis Under Seismic Loading using HYRCAN
Software Landslides Slope Stability Slope Stabilization Slope Stability Analysis

This tutorial will demonstrate how to use HYRCAN to calculate factor of safety for a layered slope, with a horizontal seismically induced acceleration of 0.15g included in the analysis. A uniformly distributed load of 50 kN/m2 is applied over a width of 6 m as shown in the figure above. HYRCAN is free and available via http://geowizard.org.
