Probabilistic assessment of inner slope stability in dikes: Gaining insight in the difference between the semi-probabilistic and probabilistic estimates of the reliability index for inner slope stability with overtopping

After overtopping, the most common failure mechanism in the world that leads to a dike breach is the instability of the inner slope. Two stability calculations are required for the semi-probabilistic assessment of inner slope stability. One calculation is without significant overtopping and the other calculation is with significant overtopping...
