Abstract

Slope stability analysis software has been in use now for nearly forty years. For most of this period the approach taken has been driven by the limitations of the programming languages and hardware available. By considering slope stability analysis as part of a wider design process, some principles are established which may be applied to writing software for the design of soil slopes. These principles are then applied to different aspects of the process. Implications for the development of an object-oriented data structure are then discussed.
