/Y[ b8f The WinStabl program is a graphics user interface (GUI) for the main STABL engine. STABL is
5oo6d4[ a computer program written in FORTRAN source language for the general solution of slope
Kn}Y7B{ stability problems by a two-dimensional limiting equilibrium method. The calculation of the factor of safety against instability of a slope is performed by a method of slices. The particular method employed in this version of STABL is an adaptation of the Modified Bishop method. The
z h%b< adaptation of this method allows the analysis of trial failure surfaces other than those of circular
/pJr%}sc shape.
