The evolution of slope stability analysis in geotechnical engineering has followed closely the development of soil mechanics . Slope landslides are one of the most frequent forms of mass movement . In the case of earth dams, three difficulties are encountered when analyzing the slope stability: a) the variability of soil strength parameters, b) difficulty of predicting the conditions of water flow and resulting piezometric pressures, and c) difficulty in predicting the most probable forms of rupture, the potential surfaces associated to them, and the rupture mechanisms involved . These difficulties reflect directly on the number of failures recorded with dams, which accounts for 66 % of accidents in dams around the world. Data from the Nati...
