Fundamental
Slope failures are geological events that are
controlled by physical processes
if you do not know what you are looking for
you are not likely to find much of value
Glossop, 1968

BUT
* Obtaining realistic input data difficult
* Interpretation of results difficult
* Not trivial, ie, extending perceived state-of-art

Task 2
Use SIROMODEL to visualise and evaluate likely
pathways for candidate failure surfaces along or
through a combination of incipient structures, rock
bridges and/or weak rock
John Read
Task 3
Use SIROMODEL with particle flow codes and/or other
numerical codes to evaluate how the structured rock
mass deforms in the stress environment of an open pit
and how the candidate failure surface may propagate
through the dilating rock mass along the path of the
least shear and/or tension resistance.
