... ABSTRACT: A localized probabilistic approach for slope stability analysis is presented in this paper, which is also applicable for the risk assessment of slope failure at a specified confidence level. The probabilistic analysis as well as its localization was achieved through the probabilistic...

...) fidence level. The latter is suitable if we assume in advance that a size effect is present such that the significance of difference between a single chosen pair of groups in a series may be judged at a certain confidence level. At the same confidence level, the latter method gives a higher probability...

... with a desired confidence level was employed to represent the strength con- dition of the entire pit slope (9). To define the probability region in the c)-plane, the law of bi-variate joint distribution of and c should be known. In general the bi-variate distribution is not known or is not definable...
