3. Modeling A#
3.1. Characteristics of modeling#
Modeling A uses a behavior model for the linear dam, the calculation being performed using the operator MECA_STATIQUE. The safety factor assessment is carried out:
from a sufficiently refined 2D auxiliary mesh of the sliding circle.
from a sliding circle mesh constructed directly by the macro command
3.2. Tested sizes and results#
We test the value of the static global safety factor estimated by the Newmark method, by comparing it to the result of the Enhanced Limit Equilibrium (ELE) method .
