Abstract

The relationship between the surface cracks and the internal fractures of a Slope based on fracture degree is proposed. Fracture degree of a slope is defined as the ratio of the current crack number to the catastrophic crack number. The relationship between surface crack and internal fracture state is established with numerical simulations on a series of typical slopes. The study shows that there exists an obvious complementary effect between fracture degree of the surface and fracture degree of the slip surface, which can help to find the critical state of a slope through crack on the earth surface.
