The use of an SQP algorithm in slope stability analysis

In the upper bound approach to limit analysis of slope stability based on the rigid finite element method, the search for the minimum factor of safety can be formulated as a non‐linear programming problem with equality constraints only based on a yield criterion, a flow rule, boundary conditions, an...
