In the dynamic response analysis of slopes, the displacement of sliding surfaces is an important indicator for assessing stability. However, due to the uniform dynamic parameters of the Newmark slide block method, it is difficult to accurately analyze the displacements of large-scale slopes. To address this issue, the spatial distribution characteristics of dynamic parameters need to be considered to accurately analyze the stability of slopes. Under the combined action of rainfall and reservoir water level change, the Shiliushubao old landslide in the Three Gorges Reservoir area remains stable. To investigate the seismic stability of slopes, simulated seismic waves were employed. Firstly, the dynamic triaxial test, designed with cyclic loading, was employed to investigate the variation rules of the dynamic parameters of slope soil, and to establish a functional relationship. Then, the stochastic seismic motion model was used to generate artificially seismic waves in the Three Gorges Reservoir Area. Finally, to assess the stability of the old landslide, finite element software, GeoStudio 2018 was used to obtain the spatial distribution characteristics of the dynamic parameters and to calculate the permanent displacements of the reservoir bank slope by inputting random ground motion loads and dynamic characteristic functions. It is demonstrated that under the most unfavorable working conditions of heavy rainfall and the earthquake in the specific region, the permanent displacement of the Shiliushubao old landslide will be less than the critical permanent displacement, the old landslide is not to experience instability again.
