I. INTRODUCTION
Slope stability analysis to determine the most
probable slip surface or the least factor of safety is one
of the most important issues in geotechnical engineering.
The importance of this is more apparent when failure of
a slope in mines or dams causes great loss of life and
finances. For many years, it was used for unreinforced
slopes.
Although the design of unreinforced slope is simple
and their materials are available, their performance is
limited. For this reason, construction of reinforced soil
slope was developed. Art of soil stabilized with dried
branches of trees, bamboo, straw, and similar materials
has been common since ancient times throughout the
world; however, a French civil engineer and architect,
Henry Vidal, introduced a model for a general
configuration of reinforced embankment built in 1963.
This plan rapidly was accepted throughout the world for
retaining walls, foundations of bridges, and other
projects.

B. Sibson interpolation
Natural neighbor coordinate is applied to interpolate
the domain of the problem. As shown in Fig. 1d, the
natural neighbor coordinate of x, related to node I (I = 1)
is defined as the ratio of overlap area of their Voronoi
cells to the total area of the second Voronoi cell. Based
on related areas, the shape function for node (I) can be
defined as [7,8]:

Stress-strain relation can be shown as:
Where AI(x) is the area related to node I, A(x) is the
area of the 2nd Voronoi diagram, and
is the shape
function formed for node I.
The Sibson shape function has special properties that
