Abstract

Keeping slope relative stable has very significant meaning for open pit mine in its whole service life. Tangshan Sanyou Mine Corporation is taken for an example to assess slope stability. By application of finite element method and applications with ANSYS software, the analysis on rock slope stability of the mine was carried on, which is based on the calculation of stress and strain, element displacement vectors, plastic state of slope, and then the safety factors were carried out. The quantitative analysis of final slope stability for open pit mine was concluded. The results of the study will be helpful to solve the problem of slope stability in other open pit mines.
