This session introduces a practical slope stability assessment workflow using both LEM and FEM in MIDAS GTS NX. Through comparative examples, participants will understand how each method evaluates Factor of Safety, failure zones, displacement behavior, and critical sections, while learning how 3D FEM results can be used to support efficient 2D LEM analysis.

Description
Slope stability analysis often requires both reliable safety evaluation and a clear understanding of failure behavior. In this session, we explore how LEM and FEM can be used together in MIDAS GTS NX to assess slope stability more effectively.
The session covers key differences between LEM, FEM based Strength Reduction Method, and Stress Analysis Method, followed by practical demonstrations of 3D slope assessment and critical section export for 2D LEM analysis.
Key Points
Compare LEM and FEM approachesUnderstand how each method evaluates slope stability, including Factor of Safety, failure surface, displacement, and stress strain behavior.
Assess 3D slope stability in GTS NXLearn how to analyze complex slope conditions with terrain, soil layers, groundwater, and realistic failure mechanisms.
Export critical sections for 2D LEM analysisSee how 3D FEM results can help identify the most critical section and support faster, practical LEM based design evaluation.
