From: Continous–discontinous analysis of an unstable slope: evolution of damage zones and potential influencing areas

Fig. 9

a–c Distribution of tensile-shear damage zone at different FOS. d Deformation at FOS = 1. e Damaged blocks. f Profile diagram of tensile-shear damage zones (reaching 1 represents the occurrence of tensile or shear damage). a–c Displays tensile-shear damagezones at different FOS, analyzing the relationship between damage zones and FOS. d Determines the failure range when the FOS = 1 and identifies the location of unstable blocks. e, f Provides a visual representation of potential hazard areas on the slope.
