stability of embankments on soft soils has been addressed by many researchers in the past with approximation for pseudo-static condition with and without reinforcement but based on consideration of axial pull in the reinforcement. The kinematics of deformation of typical failure of reinforced embankment dictates oblique pull in the reinforcement due to sliding mass. This oblique pull mobilizes additional normal stresses resulting in higher shear resistance and addition normal force than mobilized

Generally‚ this schedule is best used during the initial stages of learning in order to create a strong association between the behavior and the response 2. Partial Reinforcement In partial reinforcement‚ the response is reinforced only part of the time. Learned behaviors are acquired more slowly with partial reinforcement‚ but the response
