Rapid Drawdown With Effective Stress

The objective of this example is to show how rapid drawdown of an embankment can be analyzed with SLOPE/W using the effective stress approach. The drawdown pore-water pressures of the embankment are modeled with a SEEP/W transient analysis. The stability of the embankment as a function of time is done by including "All" the SEEP/W time steps in the SLOPE/W analysis.
