Abstract
In this paper the methodology is applied with reference to a simplified slope in 2D and in 3D. Results show that within a low resistance matrix, the presence of layers with higher friction angle can significantly affect significantly the stability and the displacement pattern of an unstable slope. Therefore, a method to investigate the influence of the spatial distribution of these layers can be particularly useful.
