Fragility Curves for Highway Embankment Slope Stability under Extreme Rainfall

Abstract

AbstractHighway embankment slopes are subject to potential failure due to extreme rainfall patterns. This study uses a fragility framework to examine the failure probability of a highway slope consisting of Yazoo clay in the northern part of Jackson, ...Practical ApplicationsThe fragility curves developed through this study offer important insights for earthen infrastructure planning and design, enabling engineers to evaluate slope stability. Integrated with meteorological data, these curves can be ...
