- The objective of this program is to enhance understanding of slope
- processes by examining variables controlling a specific type of mass
- wasting--slumps. To calculate the forces acting on a slope without
- the aid of a computer program is a tedious, graphical procedure. The
- ability to assess the influence of variables of slope processes (ie.
- slope angle, slope height, strength, etc.) on slope stability is
- strongly hindered by this tedium. This program permits rapid
- assessment of the effect of slope variables on slope stability as well
- as providing a graphics display of the analysis.
