Abstract
A embankment dam model was established in this paper, and the steady seepage field of the embankment dam in the normal water level conditions was solved based on FEM, then the corresponding seepage force was calculated and the seepage force for each earth stripe was obtained. The slope stability in embankment dam downstream was analyzed with the help of simplified Bishop method which is based on rigid body limit equilibrium coupled with seepage force, and the seepage field’s influence on the slope’s stability was explored, a theoretical basis for the embankment dam engineering design was provided in this paper.
