Abstract: In this paper‚by taking the pore water pressure and the hydrostatic confining pressure into consideration‚ three typical calculating models of cohesive riverbank stability were presented via suitable optimization and were then applied to a practical stability measurement.The corresponding results were finally compared‚with the conclusion that‚for natural riverbanks‚the predigesting model is simpler and more applicable‚but is less precise‚while for the prediction of riverbank shape after failure‚the probability model is better‚and the precision of the layered model is the highest in the three models‚although its calculating load is the greatest.These three models are all applicable to the stability calculation of cohesive riverbanks with a plane-like failure.

Key words: cohesive riverbank, stability, mass failure
