Failure Surface Geometry

Failure Surface Geometry is a geotechnical construct that characterizes the spatial configuration and morphological attributes of the interface along which submarine slope failure occurs, distinguishing it from other slope stability factors by specifically delineating the geometric form and structural discontinuities of the rupture surface.
