This research aims to analyze the factors contributing to slope failure in coastal construction projects.
Utilized 2D and 3D factors of safety analyses to evaluate embankments and slopes.
Employed finite element and finite difference methods in modeling subsurface stresses.
Investigated the impacts of loading and excavation timing on slope stability.
Demonstrated that insufficient understanding of driving and resisting stresses led to slope failures.
Identified critical relationships between excavation processes and slope stability.
Concluded that accurate subsurface modeling is essential to prevent construction failures.

Stark et al. (2026) studied this question.
