Terps are artificial dwelling mounds mostly found in the northern regions of the Netherlands, built to provide safe ground against water in such areas affected by flooding, storm surges, and high tides, before the development of dikes. In this thesis, the stability of these terps was evaluated via FEM models and analyses performed on PLAXIS. Results highlight considerable stability risks when the terp slopes are subjected to considerable external loading, such as those exerted by heavy agricultural vehicles being operated in proximity of these.
