I was doing research on how to get dirt to pile at extreme angles and stumbled across this paper in designing slopes and cuts.

If no one from the future comes to stop you is it really that bad of a decision?

Thank you Sam for sharing that...

A very good synopsis of slope stabilization modalities. I did not see any reference to "angle of repose," which you should find interesting, and of merit to your research.
