Slope stability refers to the condition of inclined soil or rock slopes and their ability to withstand failure due to various forces acting upon them. It is a critical aspect of geotechnical engineering, involving the assessment and management of slopes in both natural and man-made environments. The stability of a slope is influenced by several factors, including: 1. **Material Properties**: The shear strength of the soil or rock, which depends on factors like cohesion, internal friction angle, and moisture content.
