摘要:A reliability-based analysis method considering spatial variability of soil properties was proposed for stability analysis of pile-reinforced slope system in this paper. A total of 71 three dimensional (3D) finite element simulation results were used to develop a Polynomial Regression (PR) model relating the safety factor (FOS) of the slope system to the key input parameters. The PR model was proved to be reasonably accurate with a high coefficient of determination. It was subsequently implemented into a modified spreadsheet involving First-order reliability method (FORM) and spatial variability factors to perform spatial variability and reliability analyses. Based on the results, some useful conclusions are arrived with regard to the effects of spatial variability factors. In addition, a useful guideline for geotechnical engineers to choose suitable pile locations in engineering practices is provided.
