Abstract
In this study, the well-established pseudo-static approach along with the horizontal slices method (HSM) is employed to investigate the seismic internal stability of geosynthetic-reinforced earth slopes. Previous simple HSM analyses were based on a primary assumption stating that the normal inter-slice forces are exerted on the mid-length of horizontal sections. However, this simplifying assumption could give rise to substantial errors in the calculation of design parameters, specifically in the case of high seismic excitations or low soil strength parameters. To address this deficiency, a balancing moment is considered as a new variable to account for the corresponding eccentricity. In the current HSM, two sets of unknown variables, including horizontal inter-slice forces and shear forces along failure surface, are determined using the well-known λ coefficient and the Mohr-Coulomb failure criterion. In this new technique, the traditional ‘5N-1ʹ type of HSM analysis is reduced to a robust and rigorous ‘3N’ one with the same predictive capability. The influence of various parameters, including soil characteristics, slope geometry and different earthquake coefficients are rigorously examined. Moreover, a number of useful graphs is provided to help engineers in the preliminary seismic design of geosynthetic-reinforced earth slopes.

Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
