Abstract
Analysis of the deformation processes on the slopes with taking into account discontinuous character of the massif.
A b s t r a c t. Principles of the rock massif modelling of the slopes as a discontinuous medium and examples of the numerical simulations of the deformation processes in such a medium are presented in the paper. The massif is modelled as a set of blocks, contacting themselves along the joints, so called "interfaces". Four examples of the deformation processes on the slopes using distinct element model and numerical code UDEC are described. The first example concerns the group of the rock blocks in Sudety Mts. The second presents the principles and the results of the slope deformation analysis in Carnian Alps in Italy, whereas in the third one the analysis of the landslide deformations of the rock wall in diabase quarry is presented. Fourth example concerns the analysis of the soil embankment. The possibilities, advantages and disadvantages of the discontinuous approach in jointed rock and soil media modelling are discussed. Popularisation of the discontinuous approach is suggested.
