ABSTRACT
Steep and unstable slopes often border large water bodies such as lakes and sea. The present paper provides an overview of the stability of high banks that border the largest Central European lake, Lake Balaton in Hungary. The stability analysis of the presented slope was performed in different software - Plaxis, Geo5 and Slide2 - and their results were compared. The modelling revealed that the stability of the high lakeside banks does not reach the required safety. Two major identified failure scenarios are deep seating curved landslides and at the top of the slope failures due to erosional processes.
