Barnes. The attached SM file demonstrates how to find cutting points of strips with the slope profile and slip circle. (for an assumed strip width of 1m. which can be changed if necessary).

Analysis is carried out in 2 parts. 1. With one assumed Center of a slip circle to explain steps involved and resulting cordinates of strips etc., and checked with ACAD drawing. 2. Program to find the minimum factor of safety using multiple arrays of centers. Slip_Circle_Barnes-Ex 12.2-Min FS-R8-CORRECT-FINAL-R4.pdf (335kb) downloaded 37 time(s).

Even without this correction, the program will run in most cases, but will give wrong values for AA for some center cordinates. This correction is an improvement. Sorry for the inconvenience.

I get Wrong Values OR Errors when using the "Findroot()" function for some center cordinates. This new method mainly uses "root()" function, with few supporting programs.
