Numerical Test Scheme for Soil-Nailed Slope Stability Under Surcharge Loading

A numerical test scheme investigates the mechanical response of soil-nailed slopes under surcharge loading using the discrete element method (DEM). The dataset likely contains results from simulations analyzing progressive failure, macroscopic stability, and micromechanical behaviors under point and distributed linear loading. Fengling Tan authored this dataset, which was last updated on May 26, 2026.

Use Cases

• Analyze safety factor reduction based on varying surcharge load magnitude and width
• Study deformation localization patterns based on point loading scenarios
• Investigate force transfer mechanisms in reinforcement systems based on load distribution
• Model particle rotation and stress heterogeneity based on micromechanical analyses
• Evaluate setback distance recommendations for limiting stress transmission into active failure zones

Strengths

• Dataset is openly licensed under CC-BY-4.0
• Description provides detailed analysis of progressive failure and micromechanical behaviors
• File format is XLS, suggesting structured tabular data

Limitations

• Dataset size is only 5.5 KB, indicating a very limited scope
• Row count and column-level documentation are unknown
• Data may reflect bias inherent to the specific numerical model and assumptions
